I just found out that the person I bought it from replaced the original motor with a frontier motor which were both 3.3 but the upper intake does not have the egr plug
Depends on a lot of things.
1) Does the location of your home have any vehicle inspections that require a state or local inspection?
If so, you are very likely in big trouble.
If not, you might be home free. Maybe.
2) You will need to check with, and make friends with, your local Nissan dealer, to see if the frontier motor had the EGR in another location, so you could still hook it up with longer vacuum lines.
3) By passing the system could at least cause your "Check Engine" light to stay on forever, and at worst, could cause your engine to stop running right, or at all over time, because the computer is set to read the EGR system and adjust the engine to the readings that the EGR tell it to.
4) If all that is missing is that valve, and absolutely nothing else, it might be remotely possible to drill a hold in the upper intake and screw an EGR into it and hook it up, but I wouldn't place any bets on the outcome.
God bless your efforts.
