Default Damaged electrical component???

All,

Cleaning the engine compartment today, I noticed a component that is squeezed between the inner fender and the shield that holds a pair of fuse blocks and relays on the left side of the engine bay (LHD '91 XJS). I've attached a couple of pictures.

Can anyone tell me what this component is? It looks like the shield has cut it, and I'm just concerned about what that is impacting....



Relay in place; left side inner fender skirt

Relay moved out of the way; note the fuse block above and mount points for the relays.
