My MAP sensor just passed its test. I believe the MAP sensor interfaces with the EGR flow via the ECU so possibly with a bad EGR the ECU is sending bad info.

MAP sensor and EGR are entirely two different systems/circuits--no interface--. As you already observed, the EGR system is for controlling NOX.
The MAP system tells the ECM how much load is on the engine, and adjusts fuel flow, as needed; problem with MAP system (electrical, vacuum, sensor itself) could easily cause high HC, and probably elevated CO. CO is generally results of incomplete combustion, while high HC is caused by rich mixture, or misfire.
