What was this bruned component in my T1000s power supply?

So while taking apart and cleaning my t1000s I heard something loose in the powersupply and something that looked like a little stone fell out
I took apart the supply and eventually found this mysterious part. It has clearly been very hot at some point and is all cracked to pieces. It has been very warm at some point in time Here is its cremated remains. Looks to have been about 8mm in diameter and about 7mm long with the connections at the round ends. And this is the board serial number I have no schematics for this supply so i can not look it up what i could be. I know where to find a couple other similar machines so one possibility is that i go and take apart another one and check what it is. Maybe i could even borrow a supply.
I am just suspicious of what caused that part to fail. And if it could have damaged anything else in the process. At a glance everything else looks fine at least, with no obvious signs of heat or burning
