The best I can come up with is an adjustable hole pin.

Not an antenna I don't think, no connections and not adjustable. I am thinking a support of some sort for a top possibly the pins on the ends are welded in. Tube is hollow.

Probably connects to something similar to form a frame. Have you found a part number yet? :lol:
