Resistor or Capacitor Please Help!!

Hi everyone...
I have a very good question that for the most of you will sound stupid maybe....
Is this little boy in the photo a Resistor or a Capacitor?

thanks in advance

mariush:
It could be an inductor.

If not, most likely it's a capacitor.

Why not use a multimeter to check resistance across the pads?

giovesjo:
I checked and it gave me 0.2 ohms but this is also the value of the Multimeter if I connect the leads togheter.
thanks for your answer!!

helius:
In that case, it is likely an inductor (the gray color also indicates that, as inductors are made from ferrites or iron alloys).
Some resistors are made to be 0 ohms, effectively a short jumper, but SMD resistors are most often colored black.

giovesjo:
So you will exclude that is a resistor?
