That looks like it should go back under the seat before the cops find it !

It would also help if we knew the scale. Is it an inch long? A foot?? A yard???

Juan,
Doritos, Capn Crunch, 2 bowls of ice cream, a Baby Ruth, and a piece of pizza. This must be a "magical" porsche part. LOL :-)

Looks like the cold water handle (could be hot side too) for an American Standard Antique lavatory faucet with a special factory-applied faux ancient sea scroll applique. Was there a beer keg nearby?

Did you find that in Janis Joplin's 356? This was the "green" option before hybrids were fashionable, option code "420".

that's a logic sensor that T's into distributor vacuum line.
If engine feels like it significantly increased power when attached you don't need a tune up.

It has the Porsche crest on it, and PORSCHE lettering. Kewl. Can you get the Porsche part number on that, so I can have Wayne send me one?

Superman
That is indeed a Porsche Crest and Font Correct Lettering. I was a bit disgusted I made the photo too small to demonstrate this item's full brilliance. It's a good way to consolidate habits, both good and good.
I'm working with Wayne to see if he'd like to market and sell this creative product. Wink, wink......

I swear that is cheap aftermarket copy of the superior German design. I hear Wevo is working on a high performance version.

My LandCruiser had two of these mysterious object when we pulled it apart, they both contained a sticky residue that I assumed was undercoating.
