Default What is it called?

What is the piece that goes down both sides of the oil pan that the bolts go through. Kinda like a big long, skinny continuous washer. Hell, I can't even describe it.
I've looked for an hour but can't even find what to search for. About a foot long 1/2-3/4" wide and a bunch of holes in it. I'm looking for a set for my new Canton pan. They seem like a good idea to me.

Thanks Jack, Although those won't fit I at least have a search term. "Oil Pan Reinforcement Rails". Thanks a lot. Whew. PITA for sure.
