Default what is this part?

not sure what this part is?

i ran up a curb kinda thing and its a little indented.

the RED ciricled place.

ALSO the BLUE circled place is a little scrapped too.

i ask cause its kinda making a noise on starts and stops. or when i push down on the car from the engine bay.

do any of these need to be replaced?
thanks

Hey that is a brace. It spans the entire width of the car and braces some of the suspension/steering components. It actually goes underneth the plastic sheild in the photo.

They are only suspension pieces, nothing critical (sarcasm off).
