Found this near a lake. Have no idea what it is or could be. It’s hollow. F9A1EA7F-8E8E-4669-935E-0F42742CD850.jpeg18FB7372-0288-40F9-BD4D-A9EDDEEC6BB8.jpeg

Welcome Sully,

You might give this thing a magnet test. I looks like brass plated aluminum to me. Also it looks
like it was extruded which means it was pushed or pulled through a die that put the creases in it.
That process hasn't been around for very many years and is almost always used on soft metals.
How do the two pieces fit together?

Best wishes!
