Hi there,
I've got an 05 STI here with a very rusty look piece of steel. This is right below what looks like the aircon rad and I'm wondering if this is part of the front subframe? Or something else, like some kind of radiator support bar.

This is a 40000 mile car which is otherwise very tidy, full Subaru history, PPP pack so I'm looking to repair this properly, whether with my MIG or a replacement part if possible.
Cheers for any help.
