Missing Bracket

TTA855

White lightning drinker
My mechanic discovered a missing bracket. The first picture is of the bracket on the driver side; the second is of where the passenger side bracket should be.

Does anyone know what this bracket is called and what it is for, and most importantly, where I can find one?
Thanks!

Shoot, I don't know why - they show for me. Do you know the right way to attach photos?

It's a triangular bracket, that bolts the main cross-member/engine cradle to the unibody. There are two, one on each side. The passenger side bracket is right underneath the oil filter; my mechanic speculates a past mechanic removed it to get access to the oil filter from underneath, and didn't put it back.
 
You should definitely get hold of that bracket as it helps stiffen it all up.

They were used on many but not all 3rd gens from the factory; I can post a picture of one for you and see if I can look up the name and part number as well.

Passanger side bracket installed on TTA 1078 .... and picture of both brackets after I had them powder coated.

They are called brace front cross member ... part number for the passenger side one is 14019454
