I've seen way more red than blue ones, but
could be either.

That beam is in a semi-circle? It was the
saftey latch, when you hit something with the
bar something will have to give. either the
mower bar breaks, the tractor front end pulls
around (into a ditch?), or some linkage
breaks. This thing has a latch on it that (I'm
sure yours is welded if they cut off the arm) will
pop loose & let the bar swing back, saves
anything from breaking.

Your call on what to do about it, kinda not good
to run without it of course.
