I changed out my emergency brake handle assembly in my '77. The lever
was broken. Anyways...when I took apart the console I found this filter
thingy laying inside. It appears to have fallen in the counsole along with
some spare change. My question is,  is this a Corvette part?.. It has a
screen down the full length of it, an O ring about 2/3  the way down. It's
aproximately 3/8 of an inch in diameter at the widest. It's all plastic
including the screen, has a small brass rod going through the center. Has an
arrow embossed on the side which I presume is to show direction of flow.
Anyone ever see something like this?

Looks like the orifice tube from the AC system. Was the AC from Freon 12?
