3rd Generation swapping 3sgte 3rd gen into 1990 celica ST 1.6l

Here's my issue, i got the 3sgte 3rd generation engine for my celica cause I heard about the power it puts out, had a shop say they could do it for me. But now they're stuck and obviously so am I. There's a bracket that comes off the MR2 I think, it is the one that holds the Drive Axle (looks like a Motor mounts sorta), but since it's going into the celica I don't have this bracket on there. I don't know the name of it or what I can do to search for it. It's got my car at a stall right now, it's been sitting in the shop for over 3 years, so I've forgotten all the research I've done back then for it and I'm in Afghanistan right now, the shop said the only way the can continue if I do the research for them, which for 60 bucks an hour I feel like I'm getting screwed as it is. Has anybody done this swap and know what I'm talking about?

I did it in my buddies st and i purchased the axles for a celica gts off of ebay and it came with the jackshaft and axles. I got the bracket from a celica gt or gts that bolts to the block. I hope this helps out.

Do you happen to know what the bracket is called? Tried searching a few different ways but couldn't get it right

getting closer

spent hours on hours searching the last two days for this one part, it's nuts. Think I might have found the name of it, Axle Carrier, but no where sales those things, even in the junk yards I've called
