The object the pen is pointing to looks like a tubular ceramic capacitor to me, if there are no markings on it then it's anyone's guess what its value is without a schematic or knowing it's position in circuit.

Testing capacitors in circuit can be a hit and miss game if you are not experienced enough to know what's what due to parallel resistance paths etc.
