Cretaceous fossil from New Zealand - looks hollow

The lockdown has given me some time to go through some of my finds from the last year. I had another closer look at this fossil that I found at a Cretaceous marine site here in New Zealand. It almost looks like it could be a hollow bone? :zzzzscratchchin:

 

Has anyone got any idea what it could be?

For me this looks like a coprolite but I am far from being sure ;)

Many greetings from Germany ! Have a great time with many fossils :)

I think this is probably a crab/lobster pincer.  On the first photo on the left and on the last photo there appears to be claws.
