Default Steering Column part

I have a 78 Pace Car with tilt/tele. I'm removing the steering column internals to repair the turn signal pivot. Under the horn spring is a white plastic part, it's the last part before you compress the switch to remove the clip. What is the name of this part? Mine came out in several pieces.

Thx Bob

Kind of a star shaped bit?

The white plastic bit under the lock plate?
