Where this thermal pad belongs to

last night I accidentally emptied a glass of water on framework 16

the entire keyboard got wet

I immediately turned it off, unplugged it and opened everything and took off the battery

fortunately no water was on main board or internal parts

it was randomly turned on and off while I was opening it

I found one drop of water under the power button when I took off the top panel

I tried all parts using paper towel and put all parts vertically under air conditioner for the entire night to get dry

but now I saw this thermal pad, I am not sure from which part it is from and where it is supposed to be

does anyone know where it is supposed to be?

UPDATE: fortunately it survived 1 liter of water, nothing leaked to the mother of work though, but keyboard, numpad, touchpad and power button all are working
