Does this look like a baby blasto or something on this snail I just got? Or a pest or something I need to get rid of

Pest unless it has a fan on the end of the tube. Otherwise, get rid of it.

Yeah, the coiled tube there is a vermetid snail - they're generally considered pests, and it's generally recommended to remove them.
