The plate cover for the buttonholer is usually flat--this looks like a cover for darning or free motion. I could be wrong, too!!
It *really* looks like the plate that came with my picot hemstitcher...that's why I mentioned that...

If it looks wicked, it IS!! That's a mighty sharp nail that hammers down to punch a hole in the fabric...the plate is to protect the needle plate and feed dogs.
