It appears I'm missing some sort of shiled that protects the header and attaches via the three vacant holes in the inner fender. Not sure though, anyone's 80 look like this?

There is a rubber panel that goes there, but on US spec Toyota probably couldn't install it due to head from the downtube.

I assume you meant 'heat' and not 'head'. US DOT to bleame or is it truly a fire hazard? Is this panel the same material as the other panels attached to the inner fender?
 
I bought a small sheet of rubber flooring from Home Depot and some push-in fasteners from Autozone and installed a new piece. Its comes fairly close to the exhaust, but not close enough to melt. It's held up for over a year.
 
Nothing is missing in this case. If the vehicle were a diesel or a 3FE there would be a flap there because the exhaust exits on the opposite side.
