Pump motor
Old steering box from a tractor.
After doing some research last night, I think it really IS a pump. Out of all the images I perused, the closest matches were for hydraulic pumps (Please see the attached images).
BlueChips > That second line is on the back side, opposite the side with the retaining ring, and is on that same aft block of metal, like the fitting on top. You can just barely see it in a second image.
No gear box, it's some type of hydraulic unit, that's my story and I'm sticking to it !
Corrected "New Pump Motor" as opposed to "Old pump motor" LOLOriginally Posted by 1600vw

Well...To add to the debate, here are two more images of "The Mystery Part", and why I am leaning towards a pump.
The first image shows the part from a different angle and shows the second fitting. The second image shows that there may be a press fitting, or a raised bump at the end of the fitting to hold a hose with a pipe clamp (pipe clamp missing):
From the pic you can see a snap ring on one end.
See anything that looks the same in this pic? This gear box may be bigger but I still believe you are looking at some sort of gear box.
Possibly. Very frustrating not being able to know for sure what it was. If I knew for sure, I could get the part out of some bone yard and measure the thing.
You know, 1600vw could be right, but only half right
There are steering gear boxes that are hydraulically operated, fairly common in tractors.
