what is this?

It's a watchamecallit...also they maybe a Porsche part number on it. If you have a Tip you may be right that it is part the Tip oil cooling system. Now, does it connect to the Tip.

Go here and look, they have schematics so you can see. www.dcauto.com

well, there's the 7.89 that I can see. Not very helpful. I checked out the schematics but I'm not too sure that I can find the corresponding diagram, let alone the part. My car is a 2001, 3.2l tiptronic.
I typed in thingamajig And whatchamacallit into Pelican and ECS but came up with nada.
