Swaybar bush?... Is there a part number on it at all?

I know exactly where that belongs. Have you removed your airbox recently? That is a rubber mounting bracket that goes on the airbox. In one corner the airbox is held down by a bolt. On the opposite side of the airbox that rubber mount slots into a molded bracket on the side of the airbox. It then sits over a small metal bar that sticks up holding that side of the airbox in place.
Did I explain that well enough?

Exactly what I thought of as well. I just asked those questions just incase there are more parts that look the same. ( you should know after putting the TIP on ).

Yep thats exactly why I recognised it. It just sits in the side of the airbox and comes out easily when you pull the airbox out. I guess its there to absorb vibrations. You could be right though, there may be more of them elsewhere but thats my best guess.

It looks like a female contraceptive.

I know exactly where that is from my friend, it is from the base of your Airbox. That rubber mount fits sits on the Mount that is attached to your Engine ecu bracket.
Take your airbox out and tip it upside down, thats where it goes 120% sure thats it
