Radiator support ....
All kidding aside, that's what it's called.. I think I have heard it referred to as a core support also..

Mine's rusted through too. Wish I could find one made out of something that won't rust.

Very easy to find. Most rust repair panel places sell it, and Rock Auto does have a listing for it. It's $170, but shipping is ridiculous at $94 (to me in RI, may be less to other places).

I didn't realize rock auto charged so much for it. That sucks, I was going to try to replace mine soon but I can't pay that much.

I would take advantage if I hadn't just paid all my bills for the month.

I'd like to do that too. Only rust I've seen on mine is the radiator support and a tiny spot on one fender.
