I was cleaning out my neighbor's lawn for his kids with my metal detector here in Shippensburg. I found this odd looking tool but the dealership I work at has nobody that knows what it is. Any thoughts? I could not find any IDs through Google lens. And only brought up motorcycle pieces and wind up Windows for old vehicles.

This is an Oil Feed Pipe Assembly to an Austin Healey.

It also looks very similar to any number of custom tools for specific engines/motors for getting into tight spots.

I'm not surprised the mechanics didn't recognize it if it's from a different automaker or era.

Any markings?

There is no markings anywhere on it. That is what I look for first. I just added two more photos to help. But I appreciate your input 😁. What you said makes sense since none of the technicians here and this is a Chevrolet dealership have any clue.
