It's the wategate actuator. It opens up the internal wastegate to control the boost level. You need to run a vacuum line from the nipple in the picture to the one on the compressor.

As long as it isn't stuck, you're okay. It will take quite a bit of force to move it by hand, even with a 9psi spring.
