Mystery extra skid plate/shield. 1981 fj40 (1 Viewer)

[JDS]

I took out my fuel tank, repaired and wedged it back in...just as posted, it was a bear!
I pressure washed the undercarriage
Like an idiot, I have an extra guard plate that I cannot figure out where it should go?!!!!
It is large. About 18x16”.
See picture. I have searched the forum for an underbelly diagram showing heat shields, etc. No luck.
Please help me replace this!

It slides from the drivers

side in above the cat and below the tub floor!
Senior moment solved!!!
I attached the Install method photo in case there are others out there ... maybe not...
Thanks again!!!

Thanks for the diagram! Really appreciate the instant help. Will post more picks when I get this barn find in the road!! She had a little rust in the tank.
Just like me!!
