Uhm, that looks like thing sheet aluminum.
First, aluminum sucks for rigidity. That's one of the reason sportbike frames get trashed so easily.
Second, flat pieces like that suck for rigidity.
Even if it's steel, I don't see it doing anything except making rectangular marks on your oil pump cover, clutch cover, stator cover, frame, and cylinder #4.
It's just not even mounted that well to begin with.
Not trying to dis your work, but your idea seems to suck.
