Why don't you find out for yourself instead of relying on someone else's knowledge.

The EGR's function is to recirculate some of the exhaust fumes back into the intake manifold.

If there is a hole in the hose that connects to the top of the EGR valve. Replace the hose.

i dont completely understand your question but either way i dont think you should expect any surging no matter the state of your egr tube (ie-holes, missing yet unplugged, etc)
