What clip holds rear section of undertray?

While I was under my 8 this weekend, I noticed the rear portion of the front undertray sagging. There are two holes where I assume some sort of plastic clips are missing. It is nearest the oil pan. Can someone show me the part number and how the clips look?

Are the two bolts still there? The two clips nearest the oil pan are kind of useless since there's two bolts very close to them anyways.

If it's the Philips head plastic clip, then I got extras. Actually without the two plastics clips, the tray is sagging at a noticeable rate. Understandable because the undertray area is under pressure from drag through the grill and it's right under the radiator.
