Suggestion based on the assumption that the host is Acacia deccurens. Uromycladium murphyi is thus far the only gall rust recorded on this species of Acacia.

@KenT I believe it is implexa. See Acacia implexa (Hickory Wattle, Lightwood)

The foliage looks like that of Acacia implexa if that is correct then the stem gall is that of the fungal pathogen Uromycladium implexae as currently the only species of Uromycladium known from this host.

This is one of the Acacia gall rusts. The host looks like it might be Acacia dealbata, if so, then both Endoraecium carnegiei and Uromycladium murphyi are known from this host. To distinguish between the genera requires using a compound microscope.
