Updates:
The formation light appears to be an A-9 Position Lamp and support fairing from a B-17G wingtip.
The alloy casting next to the prop hub gaskets in the first photo is a propeller shaft transit protector.
Still no idea about the lid with the royal cypher though...

That's a ceramic lid from a swing stoppered pop bottle.

Yup, the tapered ceramic jobby is a bottle stopper, usually seen with a rubber ring in the recess.
The item below it in the grouped photo appear to the the centre electrode from a sparkplug.
