What is this? Random broken part from under car.

So I took the car to a local inde to have the transmission codes reset (Ended up having to reprogram every computer in the car, thing has a had a rough life, shifts like butter now!). Well, we got it up on the trailer just fine, scraped a little, but on the way down at the inde something broke off from underneath the car when it scraped. It looks like an exhaust bracket, and it's very rusty but I figured I'd put up a picture of it and see if you guys can figure out what it is. https://www.dropbox.com/s/9dizjunxxa...64316.jpg?dl=0
It doesn't look detrimental to anything but if I can find one I might as well go ahead and replace it!
Thanks for the help!
(Car is a 1997 E320 l6)

It wouldn't be the downpipe, that's too high for it to have been grabbed by the trailer, it dragged in the middle of the car so it might be piping to muffler or something like that. I'll just have to look and see. Thanks for the quick reply!
