Default what is this??

I took out my spare tire today, as i got a new speaker box made for spare tire wells... and to my surpise, there was an object sticking up under where the spare tire used to be.

so i cut a small hole in the top of this thing, and i peekd in, and it looks to be some soft of filter or coolant.. i'm obviously patching this bakc up and putting my spare tire in, but i'm totally curious as to what the heck this is!!!
