It's not ideal and certainly shouldn't be there, however it won't effect performance as that side of the diaphragm vent's to atmosphere anyway via the nipple on the cap.

That cap on the top of the wastegate (WG) is to prevent tampering with the factory setting of the wastegate spring perch. The hole is likely from someone who wanted to remove the cap by drilling the hole. He/she would have then put a screw into the hole and pried the cap up to expose the allen head of the perch adjustment screw. The cap itself does nothing. I have been running with mine off (so I can adjust the perch to suit my 1.9 Bar WG spring)

Not to worry. And that barbed nipple/port on the side of the WG cap? That isn't used with the 3B/AAN/ABY/ADU engines.
