The EGR valve has what looks like a vacum line running from it to the
distributor..is this right?

This might help, it has embedded links to 1970s-era vacuum routing
diagrams for the 258.

And this site has more links to technical info for you:

Including this link to mid-1970s vacuum plumbing:

And, just for giggles, an exploded view of your engine. Sooner or later
you will want to know the Engine Day Build Code, this view shows you
where to find it:

Well.... Yes and no. It should be running to a CTO valve somewhere in
the water jacket so it only works when the engine is warmed up. Working
EGR cold makes for crappie acceleration. It will sputter. You can pull
this line off the EGR and block the line with a bolt to see if the
sputter goes away.

The line from the carb base goes to the distributor and the EGR? I
didn't see the T fitting in the photo....

You should have manifold vacuum running to a T and a from there one goes
to the distributor and the other goes to the CTO valve that then feeds
the EGR and the charcoal canister purge valve.

I am not sure where the CTO valve is on yours. Mine has it on the
intake manifold, it is a fitting with two nipples. There also is one
that fits in some air filters.
