Spring Identification

I found this spring under my truck and have no idea where it came from. I can't find anywhere that may have had a spring like this in it. Does it look familiar?

I have this thing torn down to the block and time permitting tomorrow night I will be starting to instal the ARP studs and heads. Picked up the rest of my parts today and was stalled because I needed the ARP Ultra Lube.

almost looks like the spring from the oil filter housing.

This spring is 5/16 X 1/2, The little spring on the drain valve down the bottom of the oil filter housing is still there. Are there any wire connectors that have a spring in them? I took everything apart slowly so I hopefully wouldn't miss anything

In the top of the Black Plastic Oil Filter tube is a Plastic Bypass Valve with a spring that looks like that one. Here's a Vid with a good pic of it.Motorcraft Power Stroke Diesel Filter Comparison - YouTube
