I get the same thing with my Jeeps. China is making all kinds of "OEMish" things now, but it's all crap, and I finally just figured out I'm better off buying used stuff or NOS original AMC stuff ($$$) than trying the replacement crap from China.
If Rockauto will take back the AC Delco with washers, I would send it back.

Personally I would not buy one that I could not see an actual photo of the valve before buying it.

If you can talk to them by phone, and their new EGR valve has the same number stamped on it as the original, then buy it.

Make sure the EGR valve is the problem before you spend money on parts.

It seems like everything made lately is of lower quality. Not only in auto parts either. I noticed the quality of clothing is going down hill fast too.
