Open gap to flywheel - what goes here???

Ok friends - this might be a stupid question but after six months on this side project I'm about to put my motor back in the car. Before doing so, I never did find what goes here. There are two bolt holes and an opening to the flywheel so it must be something - but I'm stumped and I sure didn't remove anything (I recall) that mounts here. Assistance needed!

Looks like this curved plate goes there.

I thought it might be something like that. For some reason this was not on the car when I bought it. Searching far and wide, I can't find one to order so I'll ping ALLMAG and see what they've got. Thanks fellas.
