So I got my car back from Chevy Dealer where I had Fuel Leak TSB done and also had all fluids flushed/replaced (Clutch, Diff, Brake, Pwr Strg, Tranny, Coolant) and car drove fine coming home. I pulled it out of garage today to wash it and this piece was laying on the garage floor under the car. it looks like some kind of foam insulation/isolator or bushing but I'm not sure what part of car it is from. It is black in color, made of flexible foam rubber and has some black fabric tape on the outside.
Anybody know what this is? Is it important? Please advise and TIA.
Looks to be the foam piece that goes around the cross over tube so it does not rub/make noise.
Save the piece for when you get under the car again, if one of them is missing, pretty easy to tape it back in place again/take the car back to the dealer, have them put it back up on the lift and make sure both foam bands are still installed.
I thought it was some kind of isolator from the shape and the fact it was made of foam rubber...looks like you nailed it for me. Thanks Dano!

No worries, and if you run into other problems, your not that far from me to give you a hand if needed, and if I'm in town at the time (my Colo house is close to southlands mall).
