On the back of the intake manifold there is a gray bulb with a hose connecting to the engine air shutoff control. What's the name of the gray part?

Can you get a picture of the bottom? Is there a linkage attached to the bottom of it? I suspect it is the intake manifold runner control actuator.

Send a picture of the bottom or other angles of it and we can figure it out for sure.

Thanks
