It goes on the J-bracket just below the turbo shield. It's a heat shield to cover the stupid hose that runs from the PS valve cover to the turbo bell.

Nowadays it goes in front of the small VC filter.

You need a short 8mm bolt to put it back. You can steal one off the turbo shield, they're the same size.

Thanks for the quick reply Earl. Will it hurt anything if I don't put it back on? I'm lazy like that.
 
Won't really hurt anything.
