Lead solder bar? and ... No Clue!

Two deep targets dug 07Feb2015


Note the raised parallel lines setting off the lettering on the bar; letters are "NED" and "ME"(metal?). This may be a type of solder lead.

Close inspection of the other object shows it to be turned brass. Not certain, but there may have been more to the thin end. Doubt that this is any sort of whistle.

might be part of a steam whistle, like on a steam donkey, or a mill whistle

The "lead bar" may be bar solder or babbitt which is used to fill imperfections in a bearing race.

It does look like a bar of solder, [ 50% tin - 50% lead ] I used to be a sheet metal mechanic & we used these a lot.

The brass piece might be part of an on valve, similar to this one:
