Sorry about the poor quality photos kinda hard to get a good shot of this. I’ve been looking online to see what this white blob is on the side of my torch coral? People have said similar and they’ve been identified as Pineapple Sponges, however mine doesn’t look identical to those, similar, but not identical ABD9A789-90C6-4A99-A8DB-7CE4CE16BE57.jpeg

Likely poriferan sponge which as stated by KJ- no concern. However, if it gets large or becomes a nuisance, you can inject with vinegar or air via syringe and it will disintegrate.
You can trim it with a hobby knife which im reluctant to do as it may or may not contain toxins.
