Default Mystery part in Holley bowl

Found this in the bottom of the front fuel bowl of my aftermarket Holley last night when I removed it. Looking to confirm what it is.



Thanks

Jake

It slips over 2 pins the top of the metering block where the vent is located.

Thanks-

Someone e-mailed me this description as well:

As you look at the metering block on the side that mates to the main body it fits on the two little alignment pegs at the top of the metering block, partially covers the small rectangle shaped opening then the gasket goes on top of it. It keeps fuel from sloshing out the vent tube under accel or decel. The two round holes in it fit on the pegs.

Apprecite the help -

Jake

It fits on the float side of the metering block top.
