Default Is this a stock piece in front of the air box

Is this a stock piece in front of the airbox?

I've never seen it







Thanks!

I had some thicker black plastic rectangular pieces (about 3" x 8") in front of the airbox, I was told they were part of the factory's attempt to deflect water. Perhaps that evolved over the years into the piece you have there?
