Mahantango Identification Help

I found this yesterday at the Montour Fossil Pit, it unfortunately didn’t want to come out even close to one piece but I’ve been looking and cannot figure out what it is. Maybe someone else can identify easily??

Hope you don't mind, ... I took the liberty of cropping and brightening your photos.

This looks like fossilized plant/branch material, to me.

Cool find.

It reminds me of an ichnofossil like Gastrochaenolites or Teredolites (depending on the substrate type).
