I have moved this topic here to the Peugeot forum as it is the place to have the best chance of some advice.

That looks to me like a previous owner has cut it out to facilitate carrying a longer item, a ladder maybe, rather than putting it on the roof. I have no idea whether it is an essential cross brace so I would avoid and look elsewhere!! :)
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

Thanks for your reply. It's best to avoid this van

In the top photo there has been a third seat at the left side so the differences may have been for that.
