Thanks for your reply. Yep, from what other people have suggested, spare AA Gun Barrels seems to be the most likely use. It is interesting that different boats had it on different sides.
From my point of view - making a model of the U-260 - I've made up a small tube to look like it and put it on the port side of the tower. If asked what it is, I'll say I'm not certain, but I think it was for AA Barrels and the U-260 definitely had it!
