Help to ID part-control arm? Torsion bar?

Greetings,

This may sound like a stupid question, but no source I have checked, including my Haynes, references this particular part. 1984 300D. It is not the front upper control arm, but it does connect to the ball socket that is in the control arm. It is part of the location of the front wheels, and the source is just behind the top of the wheel from the inside of the fender, horizontal to the control arm, and ending at the ball joint on the control arm.

The threaded portion of mine on the driver side broke off today, so it is not connected to the control arm and can not be reconnected due to the break. The parts must be replaced. I can not find this part to get an idea at the costs, and I assume it is best to do both sides as well given the nature of the part.

What is it called?

Thanks,
