Exhaust flapper

Hey guys, I have a question. I just purchased an 85 K2500 GMC with the factory 350 and noticed it has the exhaust flapper/close off to aid in warm up on the passenger side still attached.

There looks like a vacuum diaphragm that pulls the flapper however I have no hose going to it. Or is some sort of spring that loosens up when heated sort of like a choke on a carb?

Which way allows the exhaust to freely flow? Pulled in or resting?
