Where did you find it mate?
Roughly what size is it?

is part of it broken away or you reckon that is almost original shape ?
Cheers

You had or done any work on the trim tilt area ?

Definitely a circlip of sorts. Designed to stop something sliding like a seal.
Note - read that again, as in an oil seal.

It's at the front on the leg, it's a rusted circlip that seems to have broken off. Just don't know what the part is that it is from. There's a square rod that runs between the sections and this is from the top of that gap.

Lookslike circlip from upper tilt cylinder pin
The pin has a habit of seizing & then bends the ram when you tilt the engine.

I don't think it's part of the trim mechanism
