Engine Pre-cooler
From Kerbal Space Program Wiki
The Engine Pre-cooler is a combination of an air intake and a small liquid fuel tank.
Prior to 0.24 it was purely cosmetic but could be easily mistaken for an air intake. This part was originally developed for the C7 Spaceplane pack, and has become a stock part since 0.15.0 and the introduction of the Spaceplane Hangar.
