It looks like a pawl to me but i can’t say for sure. It mat not even be for an outboard. Found it on my work bench today while doing some spring cleaning.

Yeah, I do recognize it, but now I’m wracking by brain trying to remember. Ar-r-r-r-r-r–g-g-h

EDIT: Maybe, just MAYBE mercuryman is correct. Been working on a Chevy?

Nope, no chevy. Wierd. The last chevy I had was a 1981 chevette. Can’t believe I admitted it! 😆

No telling how or when it got there. So definitely not an outboard part, eh? Into the recycler it goes!

Thanks guys!
