You will need to upload the pic to a free web host (like photobucket etc) and post the link to that. You can't link from C:\ drive.
At a guess it could be a boost compensator. Google that and see if it looks similar.

I think it's called a thermal wax or somthing similar. It's filled with a wax that melts when the engine heats up. The connectors are supposed to connect to water I think. I'll find the page in a manual where I saw this. My 2LT pump that came with my turbo had it.
It's a cold start device. Not sure if we need them in Aus? My 2.8 pump doesn't have one.

No details on where it connects to but this is what it is

It's a cold start timing advance.

Pointless in Australian climates.

If it's buggered you can remove it and plug the holes.

Or you may want to fix it just incase global warming freezes us ;)
