Don't know panday. See Figure 42, p. 69 of Cato. Looks like a solid piece to me.

Another example of a very raw material.
Sea cow/Dugong/Manatee Skeleton (stellar's collection)

Thank you Kino (long time no talk!..

.. ) & Panday for the info,
I knew what part oosic was but never seen polished or finished walrus rib bone.

Oosic looks very similar to Panday's pictures of rib bones in the box.
