Thats normal, its a heat shield. When you put the turbine housing back on it will hold it in place.

Yes,that part is suppose to be loose

Correct, it should have a bit of gap between the cap and the center section when the turbine housing is off. Check to make sure the turbine blades haven't been rubbing on it. When my T25 went out, there was a visible ring where the bottom of the blades had worn into the cap.

Yes it's suppose to be lose.It gets tight when you put the turbine housing back on as stated.Its basically sits on the edges and presses it against the housing to avoid contact with the turbine.

Check your turbine blades make sure they are alright. yes it should be loose while the turbine housing is off.

ok well the blades seem fine so my turbo to my turbo housing must have been loose making that spin cause im pretty positive it was that making that noise.
