it goes underneath the engine cover
the tack welds may have busted off

yup thats where it goes … glad its sorted
when i mentioned “weld” its just melted plastic studs

actually mine was “rattling” a long time ago when i was going thru the new engine bay
had to dab the connection points with hi temp silicone to stop the tin can racket gosh so annoying on a new car
thats how i knew what the heck that plate was

just glad yours didnt fly under and slice up your cv joints or something drastic
