Engine Compartment Heat shielding help

Guys I am hoping for a little help.

Currently my Midstates Engine compartment is shielded with Alum all the way through. There is one area right by the header on the drivers side that is not shielded. Last year I noticed that the area was getting very brittle. A friend of mine just cut me 2 pcs of aluminum that I can use to shield that section. My question is it appears that there is something between the alum and the fiberglass (insulation?). Anyone have any receommendations for what to put between? This area gets pretty hot as the headers pass pretty close.

Please let me know your suggestions.

Thanks Mike
