I'm not really sure, but this piece should rest between the keyboard and floppy, or floppy and motherboard. maybe some one could clarify ? (sorry my A600 don't rest in original casing anymore)

It's an earthing clip, it was originally fastened to the top of the floppy drive. It provided an electrical earth for the keyboard.
It can be soldered back on, if you are feeling adventurous.... Merlin |

It sits on top of the internal floppy drive and makes contact with the underneath of the keyboard. As you look at your Amiga (keyboard towards you) it sits towards the lower left corner.
