Default Help identifying this support plate

Sorry for the bad picture. It's attached under the cam chest. I was thinking a support plate for stock exhaust maybe?

the stock front exhaust mount is all sorts of a pain in the *** to get off...ended up stripping the t-27 torx due to the positioning of the frame, so i just grabbed my dremel and just ground the heads off, dropped the plate, and then used channel locks to remove the stud's.
picture of stupid mount below,

guess i should have invested in one of these...
