Answer 1

It sounds like an engine number, presumably black with white numbers, the link doesnt work but I would be interested in knowing more

Answer 2

It sounds very much like a steam locomotive smokebox number plate. If this is the case, it will have come from a British Railways Eastern Region loco. Although I do not currently have access to my reference books, it is my guess that the loco was LNER number 5828 prior to nationalisation.

Answer 3

An intriguing question.  Can you provide some description of the piece?  Dimensions, shape or contour will help.  Does it appear to be a tool, perhaps?

If we have this knowledge chances of identifying that piece will improve, so add details when you can.
