Yes. That is probably the cause of the noise.
That looks like it was welded to the exhaust pipe and is probably only available by replacing the exhaust pipe. However, there may be an aftermarket clamp style bracket of some sort that can be retro fitted to the pipe without disassembling anything.
If you are able to source something it may be sensible to also renew the rubbers.
Just a thought.
