Okay, I was stupid and didn't catalogue where this part came from. Can anyone help me out and guide me to where it goes? I can't find it in any of the diagrams but it seems to match up to the brake master cylinder....'74 914/4 with 1.8
Help Please...

If you qualify as "stupid" then so do I. I have several parts that I cannot figure out where they came from. I'm sure I'll be asking similar questions when the time comes.

Can you post a picture next to a known object so we can determine scale? Perhaps a pen or a quarter or a baseball?

Sorry guys, guess it is difficult to see the size based on a picture with no size reference.

I agree it looks like it could fit the master... like a spacer.... but no such thing
is original there.
Any other cars in your garage....or home projects ?

I am kind of thinking along those lines as well. I have had several cars and am wondering if this came from a different car and got thrown in with the Porsche parts when they were sent to the plater......

This fits over the elbow to hold it in place, this and the elbow are one part number it seems.
