If that is in the middle section of the Imax then it sure looks like a circuit or a component. The ones that I've see in broken antennas looked like a plastic or rubberized spacer and it fit very close in size to the FG, so I just figured it was a damper.

I have seen other broken Imax antennas that did not have this part.

The schematic drawing of the Imax below does not show this part located on the radiator, but the source is not from Solarcon either.

I'm not sure, but when I did a continuity test on this antenna it did not indicate a capacitor between the ends of the middle section, but the test does show there is a capacitor in the bottom section.
