Anybody knows what is this red box on the coolant pipe ? It seems it has been added quite some time ago and now some smokes escape from it. It's a TD diesel engine. Thanks Lionel

I am in Sweden so that would make sense but it is not plugged, so I guess I should remove it !

It looks like this DEFA branded one but painted (harvested from a red engine

You can buy the lead separately.
