Recent North Sea Find

Can anyone idenify this (uncleaned) item recently found in the North Sea. Not confirmed it is from a He 111 but could it be an oxygen regulator?

Chris,

yes it is a "Höhenatmer" with pressure control instrument, but hard to say if it belonged to a He 111. They had been installed in every kind of Luftwaffe a/c.
