Source of irritating exhaust rattle, early NG owners...

If you have an older NG 900 SE and have an exhaust rattle near the front of the car, read this...
94 SE. I have been listening to this for years and have been under the car dozens of times and replaced my exhaust system from cat back including the flex pipe. I always thought it was a heat shield on the top of the cat, never noticed a long, ill concieved bracket that bolts to the top of the cat until today (bolt had a 5/8" head, which I thought strange)the bracket was broken near the cat. Actually, I felt it before I saw it (hard to see). The other end is attached to the rear of the block with two 13mm bolts.
Odd, exhaust parts lists do not even show this thing, which couldn't last very long. My dealer doesn't even have a part number for it. Maybe this is something that only showed up on certain 94 models and was a mid year change, maybe they used it longer. I took it off (being broken, it wasnt serving much purpose) and the racket is finally gone.
