Can anyone ID what Me 109 component this part number relates to?

'R8-109.909-0' & underneath '205.4'

Cheers

Geoff.

looks like a unit insignia, or perhaps artwork put on the plane at some internal location during assembly by a factory worker. quite commonly found bit of nostalgia found on ground up restorations etc, both allied & axis aircraft, & related & to all theaters of war too. none are alike, all uniquely cool in their own right. regards, tom
