1941 Deluxe two-door touring sedan

A good friend is just finishing the restoration of this very rare two-door touring sedan (I don't think I've ever seen another, except for the one in the Packard museum's bone yard).

He has a left-over chassis/engine compartment part, and I couldn't help him identify it. Anyone have any ideas?

Also, being a six-cylinder, I also couldn't help him with this question:
Was the 1941 Six equipped with the oil fill breather tube? This is the tube that runs horizontally on a bracket attached to the cylinder head, forcing air into the opening on the oil fill cap. In the photos we could find in the shop manual, it appears that the Six may not have been so equipped.
