On Genie belt drive openers the rail bolts to the powerhead with a head to rail bracket, and the Genie 36987A is the belt guard for that bracket (item 1A in Genie's parts lists, "for belt drive models"). It covers the belt where it wraps the drive sprocket at the head, keeping fingers and debris away from it.
