maybe like 36/34??

It's a Shark Fin, but is it an XT one or a cheap copy? Came off a more modern bike. No logos. Overall length 212mm and two cable tie holes.

I've checked mine, they don't have the groove for the zip ties, or the second hole, like yours does. Angles are different as well.

As @MattiThundrrr says and shown, what you have is a copy of the original XT Shark Fin.

However it will work equally as well and if you ride your bike an get it caked in mud, no one would know the difference!

I realise the part here isn't a mystery, but what about the rest of the bike?

Guess the gear ratio, speed, derailleur style, chainset - and how long it was left in the garden.

Absolute guess to keep you amused:
28T rear
26T front (left in granny ring)
Shimano Exage Trail chainset
Looks like a short cage rear mech though...

Those Deliveroo guys look like they are doing their own maintenance with YOUR tools?!*

Proper skills to get all those elements wrong. Well that's what I'm telling myself!
