Is there and difference in focal length of a EF lens when used on an R body Mirrorless, while using the EF to R adapter? I'm still in the SLR world and calculating the change over to Mirrorless.
Thanks in advance.

The adapter mimics the flange distance of DSLRs because ML sensors are closer to the lens mount. So no difference.

There never is.
The apparent difference, which really is a difference in image angle, depends on the sensor size, not on the adapter. So it depends on which R-series camera you use the lens on. Just like with DSLR cameras from Canon, there are full frame and APS-C sized sensors in the R-series as well. The same logic applies as with the DSLR versions.
