Question Swinging sump baffle?

Hey all,

Pulled down a red 6 the other day out of an LC/J. When I removed the sump I found the factory fitted baffle had a swinging part to it in the middle. Never seen it before, was wondering if perhaps it was something special, or maybe just something late model?

Cheers,
Accos

You do see the odd one but not really common, I was just trying to swindle it out of you. Lol. Enjoy.
