Found at a B-17 crashsite

2 unknown parts of a B-17, crashed Dec.1943 in Italy.
 Could you help  identify these parts?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Dnalor, 
I have no idea what the bits are but would hazard a guess, I'm guessing as the 1st picture is of a pump it could be part of the hydraulic system or fuel, 2nd Picture looks like it might be part of the wing's frame work?
Just a guess, Would be interesting to find out what exactly they are though

Hi No1,
 thx for suggestions. On a B17 (24) Forum i saw prop. feathering  pumps (with electric motors), which are resembling  mine. Your opinion?
 
 
For david,
 the cra****e is in Italian Alps.
 
Greetings dnalor

Hi Dnalor, 
I've had a good look on the internet and not found anything close to what you have, I'm sure somebody on the forum has the answer, I'll keep looking for you and see if I can find out what it is. :D
