Default where does this go?

Anyone have any idea where this goes and how it attaches?

It looks like it could be one of the seals for the radiator/core support? What year as it doesn't look quite right for 68 or 69?

Fills in the gap along the bottom where there's a gap from the belly with the 2 main air holes goes up to the rad support and prevents the air from ducking down under the rad

You can see it laying here, it sort of folds and forms around as it goes across

If you crawl under the nose and look in through the air holes you will see where it goes. It makes a huge difference. I black silicone mine in in my 68

Nobody mentioned that wire staples are used to attach it to the lip of the underside of the forward portion of the nose
