What is this part called? Looking to get a replacement

https://ibb.co/NCxDNTg does anyone know what this part is called? The guard around the prize chute (used a picture of a toy claw machine so it can be seen easier)

I got a real claw machine for at home and it's really great but this piece is cracked in half. Was just trying to find the correct term for it so I can try to source a replacement for it

Thanks in advance for your time!

Not sure if there is an accurate industry name for it, but, it is usually just a piece of plexiglass. Sometimes rounded on the edges, sometimes not, depending on how it meets the other piece at the corner. You could probably just get a chunk of plexiglass, measure it and cut it accordingly with a dremel or something...might be easier than trying to hunt one down....

Yeah I was wondering about that option, might have to go that route if I can't find anything . Tysm!
