it's part of the intake system. Did you have a stock intake on the car?

I usually pull them off my S13's if I was working close enough to it.

Blinker fluid reservoir. Fill it up with blinker fluid.

That is not a reservoir. It's part of the Intake system. Windshield wiper is on the passenger side underneath the battery tray.

might b a dumb ? but can u cut the front of it off so it can catch air and shoot it up into the engine bay. im thinkin to help cool the engine compartment.

If you want to cool engine temps, you want to pull air out, not blow in. Adding air without an exit will just move it around in the bay; I dont think thats very efficient in cooling it down haha.
