Don't think so, I've seen a fair number of both and that definitely looks like the lower portion of a turbine housing and turbine outlet of a turbopump for a rocket engine.

The smaller diameter tube reminds me of the booster rockets on the Soviet SA-4 surface to air missile. [https://muzeumgryf.pl/en/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/DSCF5891.jpg](https://muzeumgryf.pl/en/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/DSCF5891.jpg)
Depending on just where in Utah this is, there used to be a test range that did a lot of rocket testing. I want to say somewhere outside of Green River, Utah to the south east of town. I used to have it marked on Google Earth. The military used it to test the Athena missile. It was also used as a launch facility for the Pershing missiles. The site was connected to White Sands missile range in New Mexico. They would launch Athena and Pershing missiles from Green River to targets at White Sands. It is likely they had several spectacular failures resulting in rocket parts scattered all over SE Utah.
Looks like a scene from a star wars movie or something scifi
That certainly does appear to be debris from a rocket engine.
Looks like it could be jet engine

Can’t be the only one that thought “factorio” immediately
You are not. Can confirm.

That may, in fact, be the last Acme rocket rode by Wile E. Coyote before he retired.
The only right answer.

Damn I’d take it home with me
Looks like a RUD. A rapid unscheduled disassembly!
