I'm replacing my u-joints and when I removed them this ring of either compressed oil or plastic broke off. Does anyone know the significance of this? Should it be there or is it trash?

Should be considered trash and there should be a solid ring that goes in its place.

As a guy that has never had a new vehicle I've rarely seen that, and the ONLY time I have seen the oem U-joints with that plastic has been on CUCV's and they have been some of the oldest vehicles I've had, kinda odd.
