Brake torque stay
Rear wheel brake torque stay that anchors the brake backplate to the swinging arm, keeping it from rotating under braking.
The 82-3774 is a brake torque stay for the rear wheel, sitting between the brake backplate and the swinging arm to keep the backplate from rotating when the rear brake is applied. It shows up in the swinging fork and suspension units section of the parts book, which tells you it's part of the rear suspension and brake assembly rather than anything up front.

This one appears in catalogs from the mid-1960s under the 82-3774 number, with F3774 as the older letter-prefix form of the same part. If your parts book still lists the F-number, that's the same physical stay.
A torque stay that's bent, cracked, or has worn mounting holes will let the backplate shift when you brake, which can drag the shoes unevenly or make the pedal feel off. Worth a look if your rear brake feels inconsistent.
