Question Front subframe rear mounts

Can anyone shed some light on the stainless steel covers on the s/frame rubber mounts.
Have searched internet parts people but find nothing.
Working on the frame out of the car so cannot see what it would look like installed.
Could they be heat shields? Is the exhaust/cats close to the mounts.
Puzzled
P.S. Only found 1 in my parts !

Yes, heat shields, and yes catalysts are very close.

Yep little heatshields. I had to make one from sheet steel on the left hand side (I think it was) as it was missing. Pretty simple folded flat metal design. I think one of them was still available new not long ago

Thanks. I also have one missing and have been considering SS "origami" as well, but have not yet decided.
I'll be using non-cat AJ6 supplied SS downpipes so will have to check proximity.
