Its called a wastegate flap. It is no longer closing/sealing properly due to age probably and the manifold housing is probably cracked at bottom as well.

Replace turbo unfortunately. Good news is that you can reuse the gaskets with some rtv grey paste

I think what he is looking for is the taper plate that holds the manifold on.

Part no 06F 253 709 A
