is that a zip-tie in the package?
Being from Mccoy I would have to say it is some type of header/adapter for the exhaust, as they seem to have made a lot of those type of products, but I am just guessing.

...no zip-tie in the package........just one o-ring and one set screw............probably a carby adapter........
