Clam burrow, giant worm tube, poss bacculite?

Found this on the Elm fork of Trinity river bank, Cretaceous Alluvium.
I have found clams, baculites,  ammonites and crabs there. 

This slightly resembles a piece of baculite,  size suggests clam burrow.  Appreciate an ID!

Infilled burrow is a good possibility.

Impossible to say. 

Could have been made by any burrowing creature around at the time.
