Found this in the rear cargo area of my 1974 Bay Window Westfalia. Is it a bus part? It is made of hard rubber/plastic and appears to have broken off in the middle. Thanks in advance.

Looks like a broken snubber for the rear hatch springs. Part #19

@SGKent, you're definitely right. Where did you find that schematic? Thanks!
