Its your "leaky radiator catch basin"...yours looks like it is bent and its function may be compromised.

I dunno, looks like what I'd call a crossmember.

I finally got off my *** to look at mine. It's just a crossmember, and mine is bent too. Not like a factory bend, my lowest point on it is off center.
