Seeking help identifying a small portion of plant material.  My
predicament is I inherited a small machine apparantly used to extract
oils from an unknown plant.  I want to sell the machine but first need
to identify the type plant (found inside machine) in order to offer
the machine to the proper industry.  Is there a lab or other place I
could submit a sample for identification.

There must some evidence of what the device was employed for.

For example was the former owner a horticulturists or a brewer, use
some detective skills. Maybe it was an oil press for linseed or some similar
substance.

An agricultural college is your best bet for identification of residues.
