Possibly a hydraulic ram.
The Sir Michael Beetham Conservation Center, at the RAF Museum, Cosford, are currently restoring a Hampden recovered from Russia.
If you get in touch with them, sending a photo and dimensions, they might be able to help.

It's not from the bomb bay, they appear to be thinner and longer. I seem to have lost the ability or knowledge to insert pics, this link has some really nice pics. One shows the bomb bays and the other a nice pic of the landing gear.
