Default Can anyone help me identify this?

Hey,
I'm working through doing my head gasket replacement at the moment and found 3 of these on the ground, they must have fallen out sometime from something without me realising.
Can't seem to figure out from where, can anyone help?
Picture:

Thanks

They look like the rubbers from the bottom of the radiator. Should only be two but sometimes people don't pull one and another gets added making two under 1 post.

Did you remove your radiator to do your head job?

I ended up figuring it out, and for people who have same issue in the future - I think it goes with the 3 bolts on the fuel rail.

Good deal. It's hard to tell in the picture, is it rubber, plastic or metal. Also the size isn't easily identifiable in the picture as there is nothing there for reference. Little tips for the future.

Oh and you didn't provide any car information, not all years, makes and models have the same little bits and pieces. Another tip for the future.

Yeah, that really looks like the spacers for the fuel rail.

Yes, what you have pictured OP is a phenolic fuel rail spacer. There are three of them and are placed between the fuel rail and the intake manifold on the mounting bosses.
