I think it's a Dutch Cap. Didn't know they made them in black, though :devil:

(Thought you'd appreciate a response, however stupid ... I'm sorry, I'll get my coat)

Why not look for a hole about the same size as that bit of plastic - then you know what it is ;)

Put it on e-bay as an authentic Ducati part from (model of your bike) and flog it. Problem solved. Ignorance is bliss. I should know, I'm the expert! :devil:

It fits on the left hand side of the airbox at the bottom so you can get to the balance adjustment on the throttle bodies

I know as I have one as well, it's a cover that is put on the engine when it a subassembly in the factery, it is to stop bits falling in the airbox.
It should of been removed when they put the engine into the frame.
mine was in the airbox for 2000 miles not good but I was lucky.

Thats a clever thing to do -remove a factory fitted part and bypass the air filters by leaving a big hole in the side of the airbox:o
have a look at any 749/999 and it will have the bung fitted

I would have thought the post with pictures of the airbox with the bung fitted were helpful enough?:)
