Hi all this may be a dumb question or too complex for a simple answer, but what factors determine if a bunch of fossils found in very very close proximity are actually the contents of a dinosaurs stomach? Thanks!

Cross sections of the stomach, full of squid/cephalopod hooks and beaks, of an early Jurassic ichthyosaur (Stenopterygius quadriscissus). One slice has the animals ribs, the lighter tan objects, around the stomach, while the other is entirely of the stomach contents.-

This is a fossil from Guizhou. One could see some bones belonging to ichthyosaur but there is another more puzzling thing there, it looks like a stomach, even with seemingly partially digested ammonites (not the intact one nearby). Any idea if it is really a stomach fossil?
