It looks like a bearing ring remover or replacer given strength by bolting on to something through those wings or a similar keyed ring nut Embarassed

It is, wondered if that might be too easy for you lot Laughing

For my old Matta. Had to make that in order to remove the valves and springs as they're threaded in to the top of the valve Confused Press down and then turn the toothed bit to unscrew the tappets from the top.

This is from the manual....



Close up of the valves...
