This key was included in a group of items that I purchased; does anyone know what it may have been used for....a padlock or?

Any information is appreciated.

There should be a small letter on the back side. That is a code that tells what cars it will fit. (It looks like the letter may be on the front on yours.I once had perhaps 5 or 6 other different oil company keys. I remember Pure and 76....cannot recall the others.
