Can anyone identify this instrument?




Can anyone identify the instrument above? I work at SolentSky Museum in Southampton where we have a Sandringham VH-LVE. This is a derivation from the Sunderland. The instrument above with Red/Green sections, a horizonatlly oriented needle and marked IN/OUT with 2 markers on the Green section. On our aircraft, it is in the Engine Management section of the control panel.
Can anyone identify its use? Or does anyone have a better picture of one? Could it be the flap position indicator? But if so, why the red area?

Ours is missing, and I am seeking to create a mock up to go in its place. But it would be nice to know what it is.

Thanks
