Anyone know what part of the Junkers 88 this is (fuselage, wing, tail, door)?

Nah. Definitely not a Junkers. Most likely a Yamaha accessory. :\
It's the disposable bucket from the under seat toilet, doubled up as a protective devise against being accidentally shot by the 'tail' gunner!

As it looks to be corrugated along the edge I either say Junkers JU 52 or you have dug up an old Anderson Shelter!
If you could give a location of your find might give a clue?

Unless you find a serial / part number or something nearby more easily identified that will give context...
You could also sit down with a set of manufacturer's drawings and work through the possibilities.
I've not been very helpful, I'm afraid.

Pray tell, other than exceptional use of irony - what possibly gives you the impression it is from a Ju88???
