Rattling Clamp on Exhaust

Hey guys. BRZ with 1000 miles on the odometer. Been hearing a rattle the past week and finally had a chance to peek under the car. Saw this loose clamp rattling around on the exhaust. Once I have more time (probably later tonight) I'll drive the car up on ramps and wiggle under there and take a look. I'm assuming I'll be able to see what it's supposed to clamp to pretty easily, but figured I'd throw this out there in the interim and hopefully have someone tell me exactly where that came from just to save me any trouble. For reference, that's the right front tire in the background. Thanks!

That's a clamp for a heatshield that extends from the cat. You can see where it attaches from this picture, it's the clamp right in the middle of the stock front pipe.

Thank you, sir. I figured it was something simple like that. Just nice to already know what I need to do before I wiggle my way under there!

I had one of those break loose on my overpipe heatshield, drove me insane for a week. I took it off and replaced it with a worm clamp, never a peep since then.

I was able to re-attach this one, but if it comes loose again I'll replace it with another one altogether.
