Oil control ring
Oil control ring for the bottom end, also listed under the older E2898 number.
70-2898 is an oil control ring, the piston ring that scrapes excess oil off the cylinder wall on the down stroke and returns it to the sump rather than letting it burn in the combustion chamber. The catalog shows it under the CRANKSHAFT AND CONNECTING RODS heading, alongside the piston and rod hardware for the bottom end.

This part number also carries the older E2898 designation, so if your parts book or an old invoice shows that number, it's the same ring. Catalog appearances for this one run from 1960 through 1965.
