I can't judge the size too well, or even specifically what part is the question. But I'm seeing something that looks like it may be some kind of central oiler?

It looks to have a screw cap on the can, like for adding fluid.

And add something to indicate both the scale and specific part in question.

I agree with @bucket , look to see where lines go. Looks like an Autoluber for grease fittings. We tried them on a few trucks at work. Pain to get set up as each grease line pressure needs to be adjusted so that item is lubed correctly.
