TR2/3/3A Any thoughts on this part?

I found this part attached to one of the front bumper mounting irons in my TR3A kit.

Any thoughts on what it is or has it been bent out of shape?

That goes from the steering box attaching bolt down to the lower frame on one of the bumper bracket bolts as an insurance policy in case the steering box welds breaks. Plus in needs a spacer and is a little bent.

Thank you.

The depth of knowledge here is impressive.

Thank you again for the help. There may be a spacer on the bolt. I will check when I get back in town.
