Could be a steering rack fluid reservoir? I think I've seen people use clutch reservoirs when they delete their PS in order to keep fluid in the rack.

Oh the ps loop thing. Didn't think of that. I'm still surprised that so many people go to great lengths to pull as much stuff as possible out of the bay and then do the loop. The better, cleaner, more functional method is to pull the piston out of the rack.

This may be a dumb question, but where are you guys with high hp cars with shaved bays grounding your motors?

It's a breather for the steering rack. The fluid in the rack gets quite warm and burps up fluid while on track so this is the best solution. I just wanted the bay to look decent, wasn't going for all out like some of the guys here. It has to function first.
