3.8 exhaust damper 5g209

hi all,
around about the time I started to hear an exhaust rattle when accelerating through 1800 rpms, I found the remains of the donut/ counterweight that hung off the passenger side exhaust flange (where the flex pipe attaches to the cats) on the garage floor. i've been underneath and checked for loose heat shields, etc., nothing.
the CD just spec's it as 3.8 specific and calls it a damper. no p/n. google found a diagram with 5g209 identifying the part.
2000 with 259k miles.
Has anyone else dealt with this?

tia,
parker
