What year is your friends LT1? The OBD-II (96/97) diagnostics seem to be able to tell that the system is not connected to the manifolds. Often, programming the operation of the system out of the PCM is the only way to cure it.

Are you sure that you have no leaks? I believe that I have read that leaks around the EGR tubes will cause those codes. I also read something about someone using some type of copper sealant to solve the problem. I have a 96 GM F-body manual set. I will try to look up the P409 for you.
