CA smog/failed visual, no egr

Background: Purchased a '92 900s conv. that had been converted to turbo.
ECU, wiring harness all chnged to '92 turbo. Went to get it smogged for owner change, passed emissions easily, failed on visual because no egr. Now, I know there's a lot of posts on this subject but I still don't get it. I've never seen an egr on a 900 and I own 3 of them '88T, 91S and 92T.
Furthermore, I've never seen one at with egr at the junk yards which I frequent regularly. I get that there was a recall but don't know the details. Did the recall have all of the egr systems removed? If so, why do you suppose that the smog check station wouldn't have this info? Is there some pretty specific literature from Saab that says that the egr s were supposed to be removed? The recall notice that I got from a post by swedecar doesn't specifically say that. BTW, the sticker on the fender well doesn't show an egr. The station is simply going by a book they have that says the car is supposed to have egr. The technician said that I need to put one on. Can anyone give me some ammo for this? specific info from Saab or specific language relative to the recall? Is'nt it amazing that this hasn't come up before with these guys?
