Wood wasp.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horntail
Apparently:

As a member of the wasp family, the female is black and yellow-coloured, with a very long ‘sting’. This is her ovipositor, which she uses to penetrate into the timber to lay her eggs, specifically in timbers such as pine.

Eek:

Although similar to caterpillars, a wood wasp will not hesitate, when necessary, to make its way even through soft metal such as lead and silver. There is even a record of a Sirex (a type of wood wasp)-infested tree having been cut to create rafters that were utilized in the construction of a roof area. The rafters were also protected with sheet-lead an eighth of an inch thick. The Sirex within the timber had desires for its freedom and although the path had been blocked by lead went right through it with ease, finding lead not much more difficult to handle than bark.
Even bland can be a type of character :wave:

Is a 15 year old car a classic now? :?:

About half the cars on my street are classics in that case.
