There are a couple different styles of Demon carburetors. The Holley appearing one and the Thermoquad appearing one.
The Thermoquad appearing one (which I think is the one you are talking about) is overall square in nature, but does accept a standard round-hole 4-bbl air cleaner.
I think I should back up a bit. Chrysler used four different “hole size” air cleaners between ’77-89.
The ’76's did not have outside air duct so I didn’t consider them.
The carburetor hole size are:
1-bbl carburetors
2-bbl carburetors used on /6 and 318’s
2-bbl carburetors used on 360’s (and 400’s – but 400’s were not installed in FMJ’s). These are about ½” wider hole than 318’s use, and not very many were produced
4-bbl carburetors (this also includes police)
Of these four carburetor hose-sizes – you will also have Lean Burn mounted (or not) – versions.
Overall, the outside diameter is different between 2-bbl and 4-bbl – mainly because a 4-bbl needs a bigger air filter for the larger amount of air it uses. Now with that said, many of the ’80’s 4-bbls have the smaller outer diameter.
If a person is to find a ’77, and up, 4-bbl air cleaner (318, 360, 400 or 440) - it will work if you decide to change to a 4-bbl (Holley, Demon, TQ or other). Lean Burn/SCC or not.
If not a Lean Burn cleaner, you can always cut new holes on side of cleaner for the computer – that is if you keep the computer.
If you get one with Lean Burn/SCC, you can insert a steel plate or get holes welded up - if computer version is not wanted.
The cold air hose fitting is the hard aspect to locate.
THEN – either 4-bbl carburetor to transmission linkage (or aftermarket cable system) will be needed –
OR you will experience premature transmission failure.

If a person is just wanting to get rid of EGR – then I have an easier answer.
Remove the existing EGR valve from car. Trace an outline of it onto steel stock (plate). Cut out your outline and bolt it in-place of existing EGR valve. Done.
Also, just leaving the EGR valve in place - but unplugged, works
The other items (Vacuum amplifier (if equipped), many hoses, EGR timer (if equipped) and so forth, can then be removed from car.
That plate (EGR delete) as well as the tear-drop plates on backside of exhaust manifolds were available from Chrysler, until 20 or so years ago.
If just wanting to delete EGR – the block-off plate is much simpler, faster, cheaper and easier than trying to change the intake over.
I had a handful of EGR delete/block-off plates on small blocks and big blocks – still attached to the intakes – but for some reason – they got lost in a move, many years back. The heavy iron intakes weren’t too much of a loss – but those EGR plates were. I “think” I have on of each still (maybe) which I can take some measurements – if others wanted a template for those plates (or exhaust manifold tear-drops) – but way way too hot to go digging around in my garage, at this time.

The previous owner (or repair shop) zip-tied the hose to the EGR valve, before I purchased the car.
For some odd reason, the EGR has given me Zero problems (mainly because it has been disconnected) in the two years I've had this car.
My ’86 5th Ave, the previous owner (or repair shop) added a BB (ball bearing) into the vacuum hose not far from EGR valve – back when we had state Emissions visual inspection. The EGR valve had to be installed – but not necessarily working.
