I can bend it and 3 rd picture I bend it back straight. It's some kind of metal but it's definitely not thin or flimsy metal. When I put a magnet to it, I can feel some pull but it does not attach to magnet. ?????

Looks like lead, pieces used for fishing net sinkers.

I second this. Lead is magnetic and the tarnish of the metal looks like molten lead I've found.
