    Unknown Part, Please Help!

    So I'm working on the '90 325is when I hear something fall. I look under the car and find this (see attached photo). I sadly have no idea what it is. So... what is it and where does it go? I appreciate it!

    Thanks,
    Dan

    It's three or four inches long. I'm sure that's what it is. I was working on the blower motor and had the panel off the firewall. Now to try to find where it attaches...

    Got it back on. Thanks very much!
