Front end klunk noise

Hi all! New member here. I just picked up a '05 G35 coupe sport with 71K on it. Love it so far!
Problem is whenever I hit a small sharp bump in the road the left front makes a klunk noise. Very metal on metal sound kinda like a worn strut bearing but the noise is lower.
Any ideas?
Stopped by the local dealer and the service rep said its probably the torque rod bushing worn.
Looking all over for a bushing and dont find anything (aftermarket) that can be replaced.
Is he talking about the rear lower control arm?

Is this a part that usually goes bad?

Thanks everybody!

I just read in another post where someone calls it a compression rod bushing. Parts store has a radius rod bushing available.
Are these all the same part?
