Welcome to the forums.

It looks like some type of caliper/measuring tool.

I can't read the markings on the gauge. What are the numbers?

The shape of the body looks like it goes on the neck of a dive cylinder. I have seen regulator gizmos you attach to tanks to allow you to use them to power air tools.
