Changed me battery - had this bit of plastic left over and cannot for the life of me work out where it came from... not the plug...

The intake it sits behind is the air intake to the engine I believe

You will find two small holes at the back of the plastic air intake into which this plastic sheild is clipped using plastic retaining studs. These studs seem to get easily broken and suitable replacements are hard to find. Mine has been put back with studs from Halfruds which do not hold it firmly in place as before so it rattles around a bit now. Will probablly come loose again soon.

You can't polish a turd - but you can roll it in glitter.
