Default boot on drive shaft help!

On my ranger there is a boot on the rear drive shaft and there is a little play in it when I rotate it. I can tell something is loose inside of it. Is that normal? What is the name of this part?

Also, to add to that, the rear most u joint going into the rear differential needs to be replaced. I would rather replace the part inside this mystery boot while I have my drive shaft off to replace the u joint.

Any help will be appreciated!! I'll take a picture in a few minutes. Description of my truck is in my sig.
