Possibly the soundproofing on the bulkhead. But maybe the previous owner put it there for extra soundproofing if they went to the bother of the rear sound box.

Rear? This is was behind the engine, behinf the air filter box. The internet just related this to c3 engine guard, but the car as the same motor I guess.

I was probably not clear enough. The black cover might be from the bulkhead behind the engine but Citroen also use fibre covers over engines so it might be from on top of the engine. I only mentioned the sound box since the previous owner might have been wanting to reduce noise levels and put in extra sound proofing elsewhere on the car.
