What do you mean by rear upper control arms? There is a rear lower control arm, and a rear trailing arm. If you are asking about the rear lower control (compensator) arm than EG and EK are NOT the same, if you are asking about the rear trailing arm then the arm itself is the same, of course the brakes differ.

Edit: N/m I see you indicate the "camber" arm, in that case yes, EG and EK are compatible

For months he's had one of the welded nuts break off and he cannot and will not use any of the solutions that have been given to him to fix it.

Here's the tl;dr version. His issue is that he knows nothing about cars, wants to run hella flush with 20 degrees negative camber, doesn't want to talk care of his car, and expects us to give him a 5 minute fix to all of his issues.

OP, if you've already looked up the part number, why are you even asking?
