Default What Is This??

I was cleaning the front suspension on the drivers side. I was leaning over the tire when I heard something hit the floor. My arm probably brushed against something seeing I was wearing a coat and Minnesota doesn't know it is spring. It is made out of soft rubber.

End plug for the weatherstripping that rides on the wheel well edge inside the engine compartment. This fell off one of those ends. GC
