Could this part be identified?

[MartinM]

I have a '91 GT hatchback. The other day, after not using the car for a while, I put gas in the car and drove back home. As I pulled in my driveway, the car began smoking. When I raised the hood, it seems like all the power steering fluid was gone and blew out (I haven't had the car brought to a mechanic yet). When I looked down around that area, I found the attached plastic cover for something loose and partially melted. The F1 part number is partially distorted from it being damaged. There is a sticker re the air bag on the part.

Could someone please identify this part, so I know what I need to get for replacement? What is this part's function? I am curious what may have caused it to melt. I don't remember what it might have been resting on, and for all I know it may have been loose and (gradually) melting for some time.

Kind regards...

That sort of looks like the coil cover. If i'm searching correctly on Google "F1ZB-14*AB" it does come up with the Coil Cover P/N F1ZB-14B182-AB.

It probably wiggled loose and fell onto the header/manifold.

Thank you all so much! Greatly appreciated.

What would it have been touching to cause the melting?

Where did you find it?
PS had no oil?

It was downward somewhat near the area of where the power steering fluid is checked/added (which was empty).

Probably not related but was the PS reservoir always empty?

Looks like it fell down and was resting on the headers, there should be a couple clips that holds it in place over the coil.
