Burning rubber smell from back of car, while just driving on ECO.

There is neither a limiter or converter. If someone chats ****, I'll call it out. I don't care for your niceties, we're all adults.

Hmm, "we're all adults"? I would rephrase.....

On topic: What is this part then?? Or is Mitsubishi Parts Warehouse wrong as well?

Haenzel, did you mean to point to something that is part of an Outlander PHEV?

There's nothing on that page that indicates that.

Maybe include a diagram that shows where it is installed on a PHEV?

There is, in blue, near the top of the page, just above the image that doesn't show.

See also the following info on the Richi Jennings website, where the smal wet clutch is the torque converter and the emergency clutch the torque limiter:

K.1. The front transaxle​

The PHEV has a single-speed transaxle mated to the engine. Made by GKN, which calls it a “Multimode eTransmission,” it coordinates the engine and the two front motor-generators using a small wet clutch. There’s another, emergency clutch known as the torque limiter that joins the engine and the transaxle. (There’s a third motor-generator on the rear axle to provide AWD, but no kinetic coupling or power transfer front-to-back.)

The small wet clutch is not a torque converter and Richi has not said that it is. It is a wet clutch, similar to those on motorbikes and acts like a typical manual car's dry clutch in easing the engine revs to match the transmission revs. There is a flywheel attached to the engine and the torque limiter outer casing is attached to that. It is not actually a clutch as far as I can tell and I think this is what's happening.
The outer casing of the limiter is connected to the central splined connector of the limiter via 4 concentric, strong springs set out in the same format as a dry clutch. The spline at the centre connects to a shaft from the eTransmission which is connected to the wet clutch. The torque limiter springs will smooth out the initial impact (torque) of the engine as plates of the wet clutch engage with the drive gear in the eTransmission.
I think it's quite clever. Manual cars have those springs as part of the clutch plate but Mitsubishi have moved the clutch friction mechanism into the gearbox but left the springs in the limiter.
