All running 928's have them. It's basically a drive shaft except that a drive shaft technically exits the transmission. Since we have transaxles (tranmission is at the back of the car) they call the shaft that connects the engine to the transmission a torque tube becasue it is housed inside a tube. Sorry, you can't dodge that bullet.

Do you have one? - Yes you do.
Do you have to worry? - Probably not. Manuals seem less prone to tt bearing failure than autos.
The thing you definitely don't have to worry about is the flexplate causing thrust bearing failure, you have a clutch instead.
