Exhaust Doodaa Broken - SV650.org

Morning OMO.

Ok so I decided to give my bike a quick wash in the dark this morning before it goes for an MOT. SK6

Front Header clamp doesn't look like it's been doing anything for quite a while - except dissolving. No biggie, they can either fit a new one or I'll get one.

My question is - Can anyone shed some light on the other doodaa that looks broken.
Sorry no pic. There's a heat shield? The rear mount looks either broken or I'm not sure how it should look.
Is it supposed to be a clamp around the whole pipe or a lug that the shield bolts onto.
My shield bolt is currently seized solid into a bit that rattles. So either the lug on the exhaust has come off, or the clamp has turned to rust like the front one.

Anyone?

My bikes parked over the other side of the building so I can't pop out to confirm but if I remember rightly I think I know which bit you mean and it's just clamped on.

I thought the heatshield had two clamps that went the whole way around the pipe. A bit like a big jubilee clip.
