Part Identification

Anyone able to identify this part and where it belongs? Found on the garage floor today...grateful it was there instead of on the road. Belongs to a 1973 Corvette 350 small block 4spd. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I think it came from the spot above the wiped off silver area.

I've seen a lot of posts on the "headlight door open" switch snapping off. But your piece looks different.

I dont know what that switch does, nuetral safety maybe, reverse should be at he back of the tranny

The transmission "had" a TCS Transmission Controlled Spark switch there. Emissions control device. If you can pull the rubber boot off that part you found you might find the other half of the switch.

I would probably not replace it. Bypass it unless you really need it.
