I'm going to sell some of the chrome engine pieces from my C5.
This part was included with a bunch of stuff when I bought the car.
Anyone know what it is? Do you have a link to retail description?

Thanks for your help.






Tried setting it on top of the air bridge but it doesn't look like it goes there...

Maybe an alternator cover but the parallel holes are throwing me off, usually they're on one side only.

I would ask these guys. They are the chrome cover experts.

If I had to guess I would say it's a cover for a centrifugal supercharger. Maybe a custom piece that someone made or had made and then chromed. It's not bent the right way to be an alternator cover and it's too short to be an intake cover. Just my guess.
