The shackles attach to the longitudinal frame rails and the rear ends of the longitudinal rails are connected by another frame rail, to which the bumper brackets attach. Is that piece damaged from collision/impact, rusted, or combinations thereof?

Yes mines gone is that structural?

I'd say so. It ties the rear frame rails together, reinforces the trunk floor, and the bumper attaches to it. It also gives some rear collision protection to the gas tank.

With a unibody car like your Plymouth, just about everything in that picture is structural in varying degrees.
