Found the same on Herget's Ju 88 G-1.

This is related to a fuselage fuel tank cell. Sorry no picture.

Thanks ClinA-78,

I am going to look through my archived images as that tapered collar in the center looks similar to the type used on Junkers wing mounts. Are there any holes on either edge of the collar for a wrench to grasp? Certainly looks like a Junkers design to me.

The bolted part seems made of steel, mine has the typical anodised yellow.

It is part of the Fuel Tank Mount/Support. There were 6 or 8 of them, I believe.
