It is an oem part. It smooths the airflow to the barn door (afm)

won't hurt, but not necessary. if you do, make sure you have any residual bits cleaned off since it comes after the filter in the intake.

Many Porsche parts do not have numbers and if the do they are often NOT the part number but subassembly numbers casting numbers etc.
