Hello to you all and best regards!
New forum member here, first post.
Would you please let me know, what do you think about this specimen? Does it look like a possible meteorite?
I will start with a few photos, and if there is interest, I will follow with more info.

Not a meteorite, here is why
the section you cut shows gas pockets, a meteorite would not have gas pockets,
meteorites which have been found that look like your specimen would have had olivine in those spaces which eroded away but since your cut is fresh and shows no olivine, it must be a gas pocket.
keep looking, they are out there
