name the part please
i'm pretty sure this fell off my car today. i heard a rattling and pulled over and found this a few feet away, and the rattling had stopped. i thought it was my horn, but that still works http://i758.photobucket.com/albums/xx228/swiffer88/IMAG0013.jpg http://i758.photobucket.com/albums/xx228/swiffer...

One is dented, it is the back wheel on the photo of the car, you can just about make it out..... Thanks for the feedback, I was hoping it would turn out to be a 2...

Re: i think i may have found alpina treasure, but need advis
even if it is a pina lump its on early engine management so its probably only a 2.3 or 2.5 i think that the engine is from a much newer E30 alpina. engine number implies 2.3, but the part number on the head implies 2.7, so i'm still a bit lost..... would a 2.3 alpina lump be worth saving over, say ...
