I can't see from the picture but does it have a place to insert a pin for a hinge and does it have a sprue hole as a place to pour the lead in?

Doesn't look like one I've ever seen. They are usually a heavier metal tool that look like pliers. I think it's something else.

I think it's some kind off relief or regulator valve part. It would ride on the "hinge pin", the hole near the mounting point would fit over a steam, water, oil tube. The little forks would hold a shaft with stops on it. as the little shaft (with stops) would rise and fall, it would lift the larger hole off whatever it was closing off when down.
