BSA Spacer tube — fuel tank fixing, centre (2½ gallon)
Centre spacer tube for the 2½ gallon fuel tank fixing hardware.
This is the centre spacer tube used in the fuel tank fixing, part of the mounting hardware that secures the 2½ gallon tank to the frame. It shows up in the parts book under the HANDLEBAR — CONTROLS — FUEL TANK figure, which is where the parts book files the tank mounting hardware even though it isn't a handlebar part itself.

The tube sits between the tank and its mounting point, taking up the space so the fixing bolt can be tightened without crushing the tank in the middle mounting location. Our catalog record shows this one appearing for the 2½ gallon tank specifically.
We don't have more detail on this one beyond that. Check your tank capacity and mounting arrangement against what's listed here before you order, and give the shop a call if you're not sure it matches what's on your bike.
