This was recently found but we have not been able to make a positive ID. It is a metal body missing the fore and aft end. The body has a welded seem that runs the full length. On the fore end there are two bolts that hold a small odd shaped metal block on the inside. The aft end has four holes equally space around the ring protruding from he aft end. The ring inside the aft end is castlegated. There were no marking found anywhere.

Perhaps UK Cluster No38 Mk1 containing Flare AC Recce 7In Mo7 Mk1. Tail missing of course.
 
I looked up the UK Cluster No 38 Mk 1 on Ordata and it seems to match. I will have to do some research into the history of what was used here to see if I can confirm it.
