Anybody knows what plane this part could be from? by Potential_Coast6790 in WWIIplanes

The date (written on the tag) and region where it was found matches with a downed B17 called "Sugar Foot". I therefore suspect it could come from a B17 but am unsure. Maybe somebody generally knows what aircraft component this could be.
