Arrow points to a diesel filter but what is the silver canister in the red box.. it does not have any marking on it.

It would help to know the year model, but it looks like my old 2010 TDI. On my 2015 that cylinder is the only fuel filter. Does it have a directional arrow printed on it? The other large one is no longer there on my 2015. Bottom line, it looks like there are two on the older ones.
