Part is in great condition but has minor surface discoloration due to heat radiating from the turbo assembly when it was installed. Retail is $302.00…Listing for sale for $200.00 and willing to ship.

Was actually looking into possibly picking up this heat shield. Does it actually do what is described and helps lower under hood temps and protects against heat soak?

Yes, it functions very well as designed and is much better than the OEM part that it replaces. It protects against heat soak on the side of the intake housing but does not lower overall under hood temps since it is a stand-off shield (i.e., it does not wrap around the turbine housing or downpipe itself to contain heat in those particular parts).
That said, I am a believer in wrapping the downpipe while also allowing the turbine housing to have a natural area to breathe like OEM. Adding shielding onto the turbine housing IMHO helps contain heat but also transfers more of that heat to the head itself.
Any heat shielding that is hard-lagged is good sauce.
