I need to know this to determine the position of said object, if possible.

You can use the IsA method of instances to check if they are a part of a class. For example, if you wanted to get the CFrame of the part or model, you could do:

local function GetCFrame(Inst)
    if Inst:IsA("BasePart") then
        return Inst.CFrame
    elseif Inst:IsA("Model") then
        return Inst:GetPrimaryPartCFrame()
    end
end
