What part is this under the Aka?

[Tuca]

Hello,

In my DragonFly10000 Under hull near the beginning of port and startboard akas there is a little wood part that I really don't known what is it used for.

When folding in it is a stopper for the ama preventing it to go too close to the main hull.

I thought in that but in normal use it seems imposible that the ama can make contact with the wood piece. Must be there just in case that something goes wrong during the folding.
