Hey Clint,
I was waiting on a reply back from EGR if they've tested this but it's been a week with no response from the rep I was talking to. Most likely you could make the Yakima OutPost HD Overland Truck Bed Rack w/ Tonneau Cover Adapters # Y01152-5855 work since it's just using square nuts to mount to the t-slot, but I'm not able to confirm if the adapter plate # Y01155 is going to match up with the design of the EGR rails. The adapter curves down to sit against the rails so depending on how far the slot is from the edge of the rails the adapter might not fit.
I took some pictures of the adapter to show this and measured from the edge of the adapter to the center of the mounting holes to find the spacing was 2". The side lip that comes down on the adapter to sit against the rails eats into about an 1" of those 2" inches so you would need check your cover's slot to edge spacing to see if this might work.

Hey Clint, were you able to check the slot-to-edge spacing on your EGR cover to see if the Yakima OutPost HD rack would line up? Knowing how that measurement worked out could help others trying to pair the same setup.
