Looks like a "drive dog" for a lathe.
Center drill both ends of the part to be lathed.
Mount the part between centers
Clamp the dog to the part, with the tail engaging the drive slot in the face plate.0 -
Yes, could be a lathe dog. Different than the ones I have and have seen, but I can see where that could be one. 0 -

Some sort of yellow measuring device with a thingy just below it.[:D] 0 -

Photo is one I found showing a homemade lathe dog in use. Note that it is very similar to yours (his is using a bolt for the tail, where yours is a forged tail).
Most dogs are a one piece "eye" forging, with a single clamp bolt securing the part in the eye.0 -
ah haa! bingo![:D]
