The heat riser valve spring is definitely broken:
Here's a quick video of me manually actuating it: https://youtu.be/IL0KQFsW2K0
I'm googling, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how important this is.
What affect will a broken spring have on engine operation, and what do I have to do to fix it?

The exhaust should open it up when the engine is running. The spring closes it. I would try an auto parts store for the spring. Not sure if you can replace it without taking it apart or not.... maybe.
