Looks like the mid pipe heat shield. Between the two Cats.
I can't tell from the picture if it is clamped or tack welded in place.
You should be able to put an exhaust pipe clamp around that heat shield at each end and clamp it down.
Or go to Midas muffler or any muffler shop and ask them to tack weld it back in place.
Shouldn't cost much and will work just fine.
I don't think that is a separate piece.
I believe it comes as part of the OEM exhaust system.
