Function of missing plastic piece
While washing my car today I noticed that underneath the hood next to the A pillar on the passenger’s side there’s a missing plastic piece. Anyone know the purpose this piece? I had the vehicle serviced back in December so could the dealership forgot to put it back on then and I didn’t notice since there was no car washes in the winter?

The piece looks to be an isolator of some sort that acts to separate the under-hood area from the door area. At first glance, I thought it was simply a finishing piece. But, after taking a peek at my car and seeing the "blocking" nature of the piece, it looks more functional (e.g., sealing off an area of the door's wiring loom from contaminants or possibly even engine sound) than cosmetic. Just a guess though.
