Thread: can someone tell me what this is

Well if you're going to be that lazy, perhaps we should also be so lazy as to not answer?

It's a vibration damper.

I took my damper off and it kept vibrating.

Congratulations your car must be the Brock Signature Edition and that thing therefore must be a Mass Polariser.
Do not under any circumstances remove it ( or even talk about it), or the car will develop oil leaks. Oops too late.

I took my damper off, and it wasn't even damp.

Something half oval with a handle. Get rid of it before someone notices.

A spare engine or gearbox mount.

Steering vibration dampner. Mine fell off, big thud as it hit something on the way out the back. Didn't really notice much difference until I fitted it back again, but a descent steering dampner would render it useless I would think??

Don't feel bad, disco 2s have one on a bracket off the rear diff.
