What is the grey attachment under the fuel filler cap on a Vauxhall Corsa?
My Girlfriend has just bought the new shape vauxhall corsa. underneath the fuel filler flap is obviously the fuel cap but clipped onto the flap itself is a small cylindrical/conical grey attachment, what is it is meant to be for?? It is about 2-3 inches long can easily be removed from the clip and has a flat tip.
Thanks to those who give a proper answer. To those are thinking of giving a stupid answer/comment and slagging off Vauxhalls, go and waste your time somewhere else!

Yes I have checked the handbook.
I had a feeling it was something to do with helping refilling using a can, but don't know how it could be used..
