Might help if you also posted the length (excluding the little lip above the top-hat).

Is it magnetic?

a magnet sticks to the sleave..the part itself is not magnetic

The length makes a Merlin liner plausible, but I`m a bit uncertain which variant.

To the top face of the "top hat" (minus the spigot) in inches the drawings say this (i.e. 232.5mm ish)

The areas which have corroded also match to the areas of the Merlin liner external face which are not Nickel plated
on the drawing.

"might" be Merlin 28`s or similar variant.
