Why was this pipe left uncovered and how do I cover it?
Pipe above in red has been left exposed, why would this have happened and how do I cover it?
When unblocking the main drain in the pic, the sewage was blowing up the red circled pipe.
Total novice here would love some advice.

Shower drain
I have one of these in my shower and bathroom sink. You click it to plug the tub and when you want it to drain, you press it again and it pops up. The one in my shower is currently busted and is stuck in the "down" position. I unscrewed the metal top and removed the black plastic piece so it will drain (I only have 1 shower).
Is this something that I could replace or should I call a plumber? I am a first time homeowner and somewhat handy, but don't want to really mess up my shower.
Old radiator bleed valve
Hi all, looking for some advice if you're able to help. I bleed my rads about once a year but there is a radiator I've got that I've not been able to find the bleed valve....until now.
I saw people saying that it might be on the top at the back so I ran my hand along the back and sure enough I found it. I've tried using my radiator key on it but it doesn't fit on.
This valve seems to be circular whereas my radiator bleed key is the more conventional squared off slot.
Am I going mad or is this valve circular and if so is there a word for the key I'm supposed to use because thus far I've not been able to find it online.
Thanks
How to stop this leak
Recently found a pool of water under my sink at traced it back to this water purifier filter thing that is unused. The other end connects to the water valve and looks like more of a pain to deal with than this end. I was thinking of just clamping the plastic hose maybe.
