What the heck it this?

@malacarr
Looks like a section of old exhaust tubing that was never removed during a repair. Cap off the ends and follow @Uncle Gump 's advice.

It increases horsepower by canceling out the vibrations that otherwise slow down the marzel vanes and make them flutter inefficiently.

he's right

You mean "Chick" thighs?

I might still have the one off my F-150, do you need?

I will need to post more in the future just so I can get a good laugh... I did remove it, and I didn't notice any difference as far as vibration. I am getting much better fuel mileage as I have now reduced the curb weight of the truck by 4500 lbs though...

I have the older style marzelvanes. They’re heavier and don’t flutter.

It's a vibration damper, it may be for audible vibration(noise) and not for a vibration you feel. I'd leave it there.
