Heat exhaust
My house is around 22 years old. I bought the house about 4 years ago. I am in the process of selling it. A home inspector looked at the house and said the exhaust is too close to the window. It's been like since the day it was built I think. What exactly is the issue? When I bought the house, the inspector then did not say anything about it.
Is this the problem?
Hey guys! Please help lol! I don’t intend to make any repairs myself but I need some advice to figure out what to do before calling in a professional. (Money is tight)
The toilet was flushed in our in law apartment and the shower gurgled, now it stinks in the bathroom. I went downstairs to pretend that I knew what to do and ended up just looking at all the pipes. I found this coupling that looks.. weird.
I think I know the answer but.. Is this a problem? Is that poop?? 😱
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.
