'03 Ranger Question

Can anyone out there tell me if the heat shield on the bed where the exhaust goes over the rear axle is standard Ford? I recently bought an '03 Edge that has a rust problem where the shield attaches to the bed and I wondered if it came from the factory that way or if Line-X put it on there to protect their crappy product. The rust is even leeching through the Line-X. The rust on my old F-150 NEVER penetrated the Rhino Lining it had.
