This is extremely common, there is a clamp style bracket you can buy to fix this. Note that the very end tailpipe bracket has just one hanger arm, whereas the central bracket near the midbox has 2x hanger arms.. worth checking if you need both and also worth ordering some rubber hangers too.

Cheers each! I thought that must be the part when I looked on eBay yesterday. I’ll post a picture shortly just to show you, just to be sure.
