Help identify random part

I have had this for years and I don't have a clue what it is! There is no P/N or labeling of any kind on it. It does have "in" and "out" written on the AN fittings though. They are -10 or -12 and it had engine oil in it.

I'm just gonna bring it to work tomorrow where my tools are. I'll post pics... I'm gonna guess that there's at least one, one way valve in it. Once I identify it, it's going up for sale.
