Ok.
What is this empty bracket for?
This is a 2022 Hybrid.

Do EcoBoosts have this bracket?

For context:

Painted glossy lacquer finish. Looks untouched. Has 4 through holes (yellow). Has one slot (pink). Has 2 indexing detents (blue).

I can see that with a robot clam shell "hand" having a whole bunch of cold titanium nipples it could wave that engine like a flag.

I'd have to look at my truck to be sure but I think that could be the mount point for the engine cover that these no longer get at the factory.
