Sail ribs

Have a part you can't identify? Did your parts get mixed up in the shop? Curious if that chunk of metal is a part you should keep? Not sure what kind of windmill or tower you have? Post photos of the mystery object here for the community to help identify.

They're both off aermotor just wondering about one being flat and the other having what I assume is a strength rib on the ends
