This is the style of turbo I have, what's the thing with triangular cover and vacuum nipple ? .

Not the same car, car in this thread was my 83 and was sold for parts due to rust. Had a great running engine and rebuilt tranny from PO. I am driving an 85 now with zero rust.

I have a good diaphragm from a Garrett T3 turbo somewhere. Can't tell from your small pic what turbo you have.

I have a Garret T3, that thumbnail was just a stock photo I copied and pasted .

I could really use that diaphragm .
