What is this LS2 Bracket?

LS2 from a 2006 GTO.
This bracket is adjacent to the #7 injector (right rear of intake manifold when viewed from the front of the engine). It's retained by two intake manifold bolts.
Does this have something to do with the beauty/coil covers? I'm not using coil covers and this bracket is interfering with how I want to route some hoses.
TIA.

Truck engines and LS1's have a similar bracket behind the fuel rail and it's definitely not for holding any wires. I was always under the impression that its some kind of device to keep the fuel rail from shearing off in an accident, but they're always only on one side, so not sure that's the real purpose.

They showed a picture and their engine definitely had them on both sides though

Oh OK, I couldn't tell as the pic was too small to really tell, but I thought that's what it looked like. Thank you for straightening me out on that! lol
