Default Anyone recognise this mystery item?

Found this in the dog park, covered in mud. Does anyone know what it is?
At first I thought it was a dog whistle, but doesn't seem to do anything, cant blow through it very effectively.
In the first picture the small pyramid shaped part on the left is a pretty strong magnet and is fixed in place. That part of the rubber case is not connected to other end.
In the second picture, I have pulled the inside part out. You can see a slit in the side of rubber case, where I thought air must go in or out when you blow.
Third picture is a side view, showing the two orifices. Looks like a whistle, but I did a thorough search, and there is nothing that looks even remotely like it.
4th picture shows a profile of the metal insert, orientated the way it goes into the rubber case.

Silent dog whistle or an ultrasonic dog trainer perhaps?

It’s the top off a vape.

Ps. I used google lens with your first image to find out what it was.

That's amazing, thanks for that.
Watched the video, its the mouth piece, the whole device is for grinding and vaping "dry herb". The gold metal part in my pic above is quite heavy and my brother commented it feels heavy like gold. According to the website it actually is real gold, must be gold plated.

Was your second thought "I wonder if it better than my one?"
