No, it's a hard plastic, like bakelite or something; the rolled edges make me think it's meant to roll on something...this dropped out from Somewhere when I pulled the carbs on my '78 GL1000...I had something similar drop out of the '75 carb when I was working on It.

Yeah, it's weird - a fetzer-valve spacer, maybe...?
An armature for the blinker-fluid roller...??
An IUD for the carburetor gremlins...???
I guess if it's important I'll find out soon enough...
