At that mileage I’d probably just replace the entire oil pump. Especially given it’s problematic history. But as long as the oil pressure looks good I don’t see an immediate concern.
For the EGR cooler.
1. Check vacuum pressure engine running.
2. Check for coolant leaks around EGR cooler.
3. Clean intake if it’s insanely bad.
If you don’t find a problem with the above 3 steps then sadly it’s not really clear where the problem is
Usually you just replace the entire EGR assembly but that is an expensive part. You can save a lot of money if you can narrow it down. As long as there is no coolant leaking out then you can assume the metal assembly is good.

- The Vacuum Control may be cracked/failed
- The diaphragm actuator thing may have failed
- The EGR cooler itself may be plugged. It has a bunch of channels.
