So while laying under the coach exploring it, I saw something I had no idea what it was (neither did hubby, he knows more about cars then I do).
What is this?
Round cylinder part is metal, more squarish feels more like plastic.
Attached (held up by that metal bracket) roughly middle of coach (side to side, and back to front).
So many interesting things under that coach. :D

Looks like a pump of some sort, there is a hose or line, coming out of the right side.
Tracing the hose, to see where it is going, should help determine what is it
Does you LD have hydraulic levelers?
The fuel pump should be in the tank, so that's not it.

Yes we have levelors though last owners said they needed maintenance or something to get then working well again (not yet looked at).

Looks like you have found the leveler's hydraulic, 12-volt pump.
The fluid reservoir and cylinder control solenoids must be located elsewhere.

This may not be normal but if any owners have never explored under your rig, I highly recommend you do so if you have the ability. It can be quite a learning experience!
For those buyers of a new LD, the best time to do it is when everything is clean and shiny. For those purchasing used, a good underneath inspection is essential.
Bring your coveralls, a good flashlight, and a camera to document what you find under there.
Goggles/safety glasses with side shields... unless you're in a gravity-free environment.
I may be totally off base here, but isn't there an in-line fuel filter about mid way of the frame rail. I seem to recall that from the '84 and '94 Ford Club Wagons I've owned. ::)

The inline fuel filter on my 2003 is on the inside of the frame rail in the general vicinity - a little to the rear, if I remember right - of the driver side door; I think the location is the same on all E-350 and E-450 Fords?

The 1989 Chevy G-30- uses an in-tank fuel pump and a in-line fuel filter, just like the E-series Fords.
The fuel filter is a small diameter, metal can.
The photo shows a electric motor mated to a hydraulic pump, the hose and electric wiring provide the clues, as well as the access ports to the pump's check valves.

The one in our picture is about 1' or more total length and 4-5" across.
We will put that on our things to trace - we are focusing on what makes boondocking easier and safety issues.
Levelers and under/over gear are on our "need checking out and some work"' list..
