Hi,
Looks like a piece of rubber trim. Shine a flashlight in engine compartment and look for some sharp edge of sheet metal .
Perhaps near firewall. Did water pump repair include new heater hoses?

Good luck

No it did not. I was too lazy. I know I know.
Also I was being cheap. I thought about the hoses and the thermostat.
But was too lazy Been spending tons of cash on this bad boy. So have been only fixing the prices that fail. Tranny rebuild killed my budget. But all is good now. I’ve replaced al sot eve thing you could think of. Except hoses. Even resoldered the EBCM.
