I really did not want to answer till later, but last time I put off answering till morning, someone answered before me.  :p:lol:

Here is the next one. It will probably be late morning before I can answer questions unless someone jumps right in...

Is the protruding part on the left a button that can be pressed?

this looks familiar, would it be used in the repairing of automobiles?

The part in the image does lock the item in a certain way, yes.

It can be pressed, but I would not call it a button.

Yes, actually it can be quite helpful while repairing cars. Its designed function is totally different from those functions though, so following up on that question may be detrimental to solving the identity of this item.

Does the what I'm calling a pin for now, hold something open and allow it to close when pressed?

Is the pin mechanical, and allows a smaller object on the other side to be removed? (Other side would be "bottom" as viewed in this picture, and the smaller object would be cylindrical)

Or possibly an inner/outer tube to collapse?

Yes, but "open and close" are probably not the best words for the function that this "pen" allows.

Short answer, yes.
