Aussie FAL Tool question

I have one of the Aussie FAL tools Tapco was selling. I have no idea what the threaded stud on one end is for.
Does anybody know what this is used for?
Its nothing like the New Zealand tool they have now for sale.

Thanks

I think it might have been for a chamber cleaning tool.

Multi-tool with chamber cleaning brush attached.

What size brush do you use for the chamber? It seems that a .308 bruch would be to small for the chamber.
Thanks,
Mike

Not sure but I think a .45 bore brush should be about right,all though the original British cleaning tins had the correct chamber cleaning brushes included in the kits.HTH
