Steady bracket - engine to frame
A steady bracket that anchors the engine to the frame, also known as a torque stay.
The 83-7467 is a steady bracket that ties the engine to the frame, listed in the catalog under motor unit fittings and footrests as well as footrests and engine mountings. It works alongside the main mounting bolts to control movement between the motor and the frame, keeping the unit from flexing or shifting under load.

This one shows up in catalog records spanning 1980 through 1985, appearing in a couple of different fitting listings rather than a long production run. If you're matching one up on the bench, check the mounting points against your frame before you assume it's a straight swap.
Some parts books and suppliers refer to this as a torque stay rather than a steady bracket - same part, different name depending on which catalog you're reading from.
