Wierd metal shards-need help IDing

[piratepete]

I found these about five days ago, but have no clue what they are. I found them in an area with a lot of hits, so if nobody knows, i can probably find more. The bell lookin thing has nothin to do with oil, and im still working on getting all the dirt out from inside it. Thanks for your help.

Looks like an old bottle jack to me, like the kind that came with
the early Japanese cars.

Not sure what it is but you better get it away from that light color carpet before the wife gets home.
