Default 1991 Civic SI suspension question

Hi, I am brand new here. Forgive my ignorance on car parts. I hope someone may know what you call this part. I picked up a 91 Civic SI that has damage to the driver side front from hitting a curb. The prior owner replaced the lower control arm, but failed to replace the cross member that the arms connect to. The cross member passes underneath the back of the engine to both sides of the car and both right and left side control arms attach. The rack and pinion steering is right next to it. The mount where the lower control arm connects to is bent back and must be replaced. Does any one know what this cross member called? Sorry for the drawn out question, and thanks for your help.

Isn't it called a cross-member? Or a K-member?

Thanks for the quick response. Does anyone know if there is any online diagrams of the suspension componets?

I don't think so, it is on the front of the car. Thanks for the try.

Are you refering to the Stabilizer bar?
