It's other half: https://brickset.com/parts/4652236/upper-part-for-turntable-z28
This is the worst Camaro Z28 I've ever seen.
The upper half of this turntable showed up in January:

Is this the first time we’ve completed an assembly on RPOTD?
If anyone knows how to separate this element from its upper counterpart, please share!
Once you hear the Click the parts it won't come out!
@BillingsBrix @sebastianpc In the upper part, there are gaps at the top along the circumference edge (the reference provided by @Randomness shows two of them at 3 and 7 o'clock). The ridge of this part of the day clicks into that upper part's cover. When pushing down and toward the centre into at least one of those gaps, it will push the ridge of today's part out of the cover to unclick them and the parts will once more be two. I do it all the time when I get sets to prepare for my kids to build. It's a lot of force, and you don't want to use pointy metal objects. In fact, all turntables of this design use the same method.
I also agree with @Murdoch17, worst Chevy ever.

They've tricked us! This only has two cylinders!

No. This may not be an exhaustive list, but it sure was an exhausting one:

This pair may not be compatible, but they sure look like they are.

The final 2 are.
@BillingsBrix:
I wasn't sure because they aren't shown to have been produced concurrently at all, so I figured there was a possibility that there was a slight tweak to the design that made the earlier version incompatible with the new one.
More lower parts, as if the endless array of Mario’s trousers wasn’t enough XD
As mentioned with the upper part RSOD useful part when you need a small geared turntable at the end of a crane boom when lifting logs etc. in set 9397. I never understand why bricklink etc sell the upper and lower parts separately as not meant to come apart once assembled unless you use a flat screwdriver.
@Brickalili:
Are you suggesting this part is a pair of pants for the turntable top?

You know I hadn’t thought of it that way before but yes, that seems to be exactly right
@Brickalili:
And is the top section a shirt for the lower section? Is this the LEGO equivalent of Gossamer from Looney Tunes?
@Brickalili:
LEGOsammer! Just don’t pull on any loose threads…
