Looks like a Mk1 shifter link... might have been left lying on the crossmember by a lazy mechanic.

Check that your car has all its links and can shift to all gears.

Would it be under the hood? It can shift in all gears

Ja, it would be by the tranny, if it were even the correct one. I doubt you have a MK1 tranny, but you might.

It's likely somebody just left it there when trying to replace parts.

Yeah you'd either have a 2-speed 3/4 or a no-speed if that was actually from your car....
