Are you on about the one that covers the front of the sump.

No its the one behind that, I believe is plastic and covers transmission and fuel filter

I think you may mean the one that has padding on it as well?
In terms of lay out from the front going back you have:
Plastic shield covering tow eye : steel plate covering sump : plastic plate covering transmission
I guess its this last one you want? They break very easily - like many people I've done one when off-roading.
Have you tried Nick (TLO) @ Yeovil?
Long term if you intend going off-road / green laning I'd replace it with an alloy one. Otherwise I may still have a newish one in one of my sheds but it's too bloody wet to go poking around right now! I see no ships........

Thanks for the info spiderbaby will try Nick yes it is the tray that follows on from the steel sump guard, as my d3 didn't have one when I bought it there are 4 lugs on the chassis so I assumed a guard was missing, not off roaring so I will see what comes up or make an ally one.
