I hope you guys tipped your "guide". Also, jjbad thinks it is rare, and I agree. You should let the folks at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, or some other such entity know where it is before corrosion takes it away forever.
Based on what I can see, it's probably a 15cm FK iR, or 15 cm Kanone 16. After WW1, the Japanese received control of several former German colonies in the Pacific. Many nations also received German weapons in large quantities as war reparations.
It's an excellent find and a very RARE one at that.

Lombok is a relatively small Indonesian island just East of Bali. It is dominated by the very high (3762m) volcano Gunung Rinjani
