A Rattling Under the Hood

Recently something under my hood started to rattle when I drove. Going under the car it was pretty easy to find out what the issue is. I need to order a new bushing for some part or another that's part of the steering system, but I have no idea what it is. Can't find it in any diagrams in my FSM; I was wondering if any of you guys could help me identify it.

Thanks a bunch

A new bushing should be coming in the mail in the next couple of days, and I just want to make sure… it looks like it should just be a matter of sliding it off, putting the bushing in, then sliding it back on, does anyone know if there's anything more to it than that?
