Does anyone know what this is???
Hi all,

I pulled the belly pan on my '17 GLS450 do do an oil change and this strap was sitting on it. It looks like it curls up and connects to itself, maybe just a strap to secure a hose or something? Anyone recognize it or know where it might go? Thanks

Looks like the blinker fluid filler valve support brace. Anyone else want to weigh in?

it looks like this piece attached, which clips on the transmission breather line. Cant be certain unless you get a part number off it since it could also be used in other places

^yes^ it is a hose or pipe vibration isolator, to protect whatever it wraps around from rubbing against an adjacent component.
