Default What is this part????

Just curious.....what is the plastic piece on an LS1 that the actual lifters fit into? This seems like a very weak piece, and I was curious if the aftermarket has stepped up with a more sturdy metal based unit.

Or are all of my fears simply unfounded?

Lifter trays? There isn't a load on them. They are probably a polymer or composite.
