Hi,
What is this part (black component in linked pic) attached to the back of the alternator?
** Link is directly to a jpeg, not a thread. I can't post my own pics here and this is the only pic of the component in question I could find **

Should this be present on my 96 XJ? Someone has monkeyed around under the hood previously (add on wiring, un connected connectors etc.) and the engine has been replaced so I'm not sure what is supposed to be there and what is not.
I'm having charging issues that I'm trying to work out. My voltage/charging idiot light comes on when running. I get 11.95 V at idle when checked across the battery and from the alternator to ground. Also the battery drains when parked and not in use for some time.
Thank you.
