I was thinking motorcycle but looked at a few restoration sites dated 1941 bikes and it does not seem to fit ... at least not the BMW.

Re: What is this?
Long shot, but it is the cover to the gearing used where the drive shaft comes out of a tank body and then is dropped below to another drive shaft lower than the tank body to which the wheels are attached? (if that makes sense?)
Re: What is this?
good guess watchcam, it could be a final drive casing. when i saw it i thought sherman but it's not from a sherman, i've also looked at panther gearbox but couldn't see any similarity. it could also be from a stug or panzer 4 but i can't find any decent pics to compare it so there's not a lot of info i can give, only that it's a gear casing, the 2 large holes are there to allow access to the shaft and bearings.

Your right chaps, it's the final drive cover off a Pz III or even a STuG. Here's a good pic.
