I did a how to for a 1.4 on another forum, gives you a rough idea.... on yours i think the EGR is mounted on the side, near the battery..
Quick how to:
First job get a new gasket from Vauxhall - about £2 ....
.... next job is to go to the car and remove in the following order , battery , fuel pipes and servo vacume pipe then coolant expansion tank and you should be left with this - the EGR is circled .....
....and here it is closer up ....
It has two T45 torx bolts, the near side is easy to get to, the offside is nigh on impossible - you have to do it by feel - lots of trial & error .
With the EGR now removed you can see where it sits on the inlet manifold ....
... and here it is closer up - you can see the far bolt hole ....
There are two variants to the EGR on the 1.4 16v....
Use carb cleaner and give the EGR a good clean, i used a small stiff brush to clean in side.....
Once clean.......
... put the new gasket next to the EGR and bolt back to the manifold.
Put the plug back in the top and put all the fuel and vacume lines back on tight, put the expansion tank in and replace the battery.
If your memory aint so good, make a note of any pipes you take off.
If you want to blank the egr off, then source some suitable plate metal .....
.... and use the gasket as a template .....
... and cut out and shape , file and drill so that it matches the gasket exactly ....
... then put the plate next to the EGR, new gasket and bolt back to the manifold.
I think you can get blanking plates from vauxhall too.
