That would be your engine mount here is a link for all of your mounts on EBay.

That there is your front tie bar. That is a weird looking break. However, I wouldn't worry about it other than keeping an eye on it.
It is still doing its job. The bolt and washer are going through it to the engine. It is still solidly connected to the rest of that A-frame. The A-frame is still held by three bolts to the frame.
I'd say you're good.
There's a link to a manual at the top of the page. Probably not your bike but it will give you most of the information.
Wow you guys are fast! The part brand new from Lakeshore HD, is only $17.80
Holy crap retrax isn't kidding! Thanks so much fellas I was at a loss haha it didn't look familiar to me. And thanks for the links!
I would make my own replacement with Heim joint rod ends.
And with that crazy assed break, I would look for other loose parts allowing for flex. Unnatural flex could have caused this failure
any ideas where to start checking? or should i just start wrenching down all over?
