Have you stuck a scope on it to see if anything plausible is on there?

I agree with Martin that the location suggests a crystal of some kind although tbh, I've also never seen one quite like that. Too much contact surface area that could radiate HF noise. Could it be some kind of backup device (although again, never seen one like that)?
