Worm Like?, Segmented?, In Small Deathbed Silified Sedimentary Deposite

I cut a slab off a nice looking peice of rock to see if there was cabbing material ins ide and found a small wormlike fossil along with a few unidentifyable pces of other things incased in sedimentary deposite then silified afterwards I assume.

The "worm" is 20mm long aproximately

unknown age of rock but this area ; Thompson Okanogan region, of BC has a very mixed up geology; there are even islands that used to be off the coast of California buried here somewhere.

I'd be interested to know if there is any discription of things like this or someone can say what it is.

Thanks

Lloyd

It's certainly a section through a 3-dimensional something, and it is probably organic, but I can't parse the geometry to guess what was bisected.

thanks Auspex

I think it might be the tube laying bisected and the snail shell being the black peice that was sectioned perpendicularly and goes straight through the slab to the other side,
