Anyone know what this is on a fasthitch?

Here is a picture of the back of my '61 460. I picked up the 3pt arms at an auction a couple of weeks ago for $75 (think I got a good deal.) They have the dual holes in each socket (Cat I/Cat II.) It looks like they are reversible. My question is: Does anyone recognize the shroud bolted to the back of the PTO unit that prevents the hitch from moving side to side? I've only seen this on one other 560 and I have no idea what it is or why it would be used. Might it be factory? The left side is welded and not bolted. I do not see this in any parts manual. Looks like it's the industrial version of the pin you put in underneath to prevent side movement on the hitch. Does anyone think this setup would be dangerous with a fasthitch plow? Any comments are welcome.

Thanks!
