What is this rubber thing I found inside my washing machine cabinet?

My washer hasn't been draining properly; I just ordered a new drain pump, so we'll see if that fixes it.

But when I was looking inside the cabinet, I found this long rubber piece lying on the bottom (see pix). It's not the belt -- the belt is intact. It's also thicker and softer than the belt material. Is it a different belt? A seal? A gasket?

I also found a Tub Seal, in new condition, lying on the bottom. I have no idea how it could have gotten there, although I now wonder if I was sold a reconditioned washer that someone just carelessly left junk in.

If anyone can identify what this is, and what it might mean that I found it lying on the bottom, I would be very appreciative

Thank you.
