Default Small doo-dad at bottom of recoil shield...

Hello,
I have a model 65-4 that has a worn part on the frame. It is what I always understood to be the cylinder stop. Although I realize that that name may apply to the part in the frame in the cylinder opening. Or is it the frame lug? The part I’m concerned with literally stops the cylinder from going backwards when opened and the ejector rod is depressed. It is worn down (I bought it used two years ago) and sometimes the cylinder will go back beyond that point and get stuck.
I have searched the web for a good view of the left side of a Smith revolver and shocking cannot find anything with a detailed left side schematic. It appears to be pressed in. But it probably is the other side of one of the frame screws.
Is it easily replaceable? Once the side plate and internals are removed?
Thanks!
