Does that wastegate have a valve seat gasket/seal? I doubt the whole valve is just missing. It would have to be disassembled for that.

This is a picture of the op's WG that was sent to me.




My suggestion would be to either see if it can be sent in for repair or depending on cost buy a new one. If you bought a new WG you would have to stick with the same model you have, otherwise some fab work will be needed to weld on different flanges for other WG brands.
