Exhaust valve actuator transfer

[30_JAHRE_M3]

I was in the process of installing a CS exhauat, I was transferring the actuator when I noticed that a piece of missing from the actuator to the exhast. My stock exhaust has it but the CS exhaust does not. Does anyone know if this piece is removable?

Oh man that looks like a bad day; I believe the part is pressed or tack welded in. I just transferred over to a valved AFE power system and that part was definitely not transferable.

Can you hear rattling if you shake your exhaust?

Isn't CA exhaust always open? Just spitballing

I damaged the brown plastic retainer piece circled in the first photo. Anyone know the part number and if it’s available separately?

I am also looking for the part number for the brown plastic retainer, since the lips seem to break off often. There's also a spring underneath it too.

For the life of me, I cannot find the part numbers. Does anyone happen to know them?

that part / spring seem to be impossible to find
