Stray buzzer - where does it live?

In an attempt to identify an annoying tizz that occurs at 2500rpm I was feeling around behind the dash for anything rubbing against the back of it when this little chap drops out from the wiring loom, roughly above the transmission tunnel.

According to Google he's a 12v buzzer, but I have no idea what his job is. The wiring diagram shows a buzzer in the vicinity of the starter button that could also be connected to the oil pressure switch and the indicators. So is he a combined low oil pressure and turn signal buzzer?

Clearly I need to buy a replacement as his legs appear to have broken off, but can anyone send me a picture of their buzzer in situ, so that I know which part of the loom to take apart to re-solder a new one into please?

It looks very much like the indicator buzzer. They are very often covered up or removed as the sound is annoying. If yours didn't have a loud sound (like a piece buzzer sound - not a click) with an indicator on, perhaps a previous owner has clipped the wires? 
it is located roughly behind the tacho.
