Whats this piece???

I found this on the floor of my garage under one of my wheel wells. It really looks like a dust cap to some part of the brake mechanism, but I looked and looked and can't find anything looking like its missing. Does anyone recognize what it is??? Here are a few views with a utility knife for size comparison. Thx

Looks like a cap to a bleeder valve for your brakes.
