not a filter dryer for air because no way to drain it
looks to be an old school type of inline fuel filter for commercial type engines like irrigation pumps etc

w/ Cdowns. I used a similiar style of a fuel filter when I rebuilt my 65 VW bug back in the day. I re-ran all the fuel lines and instead of using the rubber lines in the engine compartment, I kept it steel and used a fuel filter very similiar to the one in your picture.

x3. Looking at the filter element, it definitely looks like something used for fuel.

Depending on the diameter of those threaded ends, you could probably even use it with a rubber line.
