That really doesn't look like a round of some sort because of the"whatever it is" around the casing on the back half and the size described to have a taper like that doesn't make sense.  But the shadow on the front half looks like the tip of a round.
Too small to be a CO2 cartridge....
What the heck is it??

My guess is one of those pins from an engine stand that keeps it from rotating.
If it ain't broke, fix it 'till it is.

If its hollow and has a hole in each end it may just be as you said, the tip of the oil nozzle from a Jiffy Lube gun or one of those places.
