motor part???

[Mud Magnet]

Guy I was detecting with dug this today. It's about 6" x 4", no rust, had a purplish sheen like it had been subjected to heat. Found at an old party beach on a resevoir. ?

I have worked on alot of cars and have never seen something like that piece on an engine

hard to tell from the pic but maybe part of a interior center console? looks like where the key button was and the curve would look right for the center hump that runs between the seats.

I was thinking maybe an old car part as I have found serveral at this site and it looked to be chrome or nickel plated.

Definitely not plastic, pretty heavy. I work with the guy who found it so I'll have him bring it in so we can weigh it and check for magnetism.

Salt water or fresh, if salt Sacrificial anode?

Looks to me to be a mount or spacer for something cylinder in shape to be placed on a flat surface.

If it had been in salt water it would be gone
