If you look at the back of the heads you'll likely find a block-off plate bolted in (one on each side) that looks like the flange on that part that's just hanging out. I wonder if #4 is some sort of exhaust cut-out you can open/close? Usually people put those further up in the exhaust, though, so I'm not sure why it's all the way back at the muffler
Just found out what the deal with the muffler is. It’s a motor that turns a flap to adjust the noise of the muffler. https://www.maperformance.com/products/xforce-varex-smartbox-exhaust-control-unit-vksb01
