Hey All,
I have no clue what this is , please shed some light. I started taking components out to switch my battery tray and found this lying on the wheel well in the engine bay(under the battery tray). It looks like it was snipped off of something.

That's an AC Orifice tube, it goes inside the metal line that goes into the bottom of your AC box, just above the inner fender. You can trash that one, that's likely the one they pulled out the last time yours was serviced.
