Reinforcing plate for master cylinder & steering column - What holds it on?

What holds this reinforcing plate/bracket to the firewall? Is it just the bolts or is it also welded?

Thanks. I'll see how it looks cleaned up before deciding if it needs to come off.

Why would you remove it? Factory put it there for a good reason.

It would get put back on. I'm cleaning up the firewall and addressing rust.

It's going to have quite a few spot welds holding it
