Default Another....where does this go/come from??

Found this laying on the heater hoses coming out of the water pump. The only thing I have done lately near this area is remove the right side headlight surround piece.
Does this go inside the headlight somewhere?

Thanks

Looks like the rubber bumper that goes on the AC hard line on the passenger side to me.

Stingroo is correct. Look where the ac hard line passes under the radiator cover on the passenger side. It keeps the line from rubbing on the cover.

The above two posters are correct on what that part is. Just reinstall it and motor on.

OK!....I must have knocked it off/loose when I had the rad cover off a month ago.
I took a quick look, did not see exactly where it goes. Perhaps I need to remove the rad cover to see.....will take another look before I go to that effort.

THANKS for the replies....would never have determined that is where it came from.
Another example of what this Forum is all about!

I was looking for a metal tab for it so slide onto. I was way overthinking this.
THANK YOU ztheusa for taking the time to snap a pic and post it.

Did you ever find one to order? I was thinking of using some foam rubber with RTV since it's purpose is to keep the vibration and abrasion down I would think. Cheers!!!
