We had almost the exact same post about 4-5 years ago, about the same exact part 
With almost the exact same title ...
It is some sort of resonator or delay valve - or a one-way valve? No idea... I'll let you know in the spring ...

I happened to get bored and curious, and found out more on this
strange contraption... It does indeed, as suggested by a local mechanic, seem to be a silencer, or an impulse muffler to quiet the air bypass system. Another product of "Ford-engineering" no doubt. There doesn't seem to be anything that could go wrong with it, however, the mechanic has heard of bits of plastic debris finding their way into the IAC, this part being the suspect...
Of course, it could be as simple as a flux capacitor after all!
