desperately searching a background in the standard unitframes

Hey guys,

i'm trying to find out what's the name of that semitransparent background from the standard unitframes.

I'm trying to replace that background through backgrounds directly behind the health- and manabar.
Actual problem here -> http://i.imgur.com/JNIGC.jpg

Any hints would be appreciated.

(:

Here's another picture and some lines of my code...

http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/8024/bgproblem.png

Code:
local function whoa_targetFrame()
    TargetFrame.nameBackground:Hide() -- that was the upper background
--  UNKNOWNBACKGROUNDFRAME:Hide()
    TargetFrame.deadText:ClearAllPoints()
    TargetFrame.deadText:SetPoint("CENTER", TargetFrameHealthBar, "CENTER", 0, 0)
    TargetFrameTextureFrameName:ClearAllPoints()
    TargetFrameTextureFrameName:SetPoint("BOTTOMRIGHT", TargetFrame, "TOP", 0, -20)
    TargetFrameHealthBar:ClearAllPoints()
    TargetFrameHealthBar:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", 5, -24)
    TargetFrameHealthBar:SetHeight(18)
    TargetFrameHealthBar.background = TargetFrameHealthBar:CreateTexture("TargetFrameHealthBarBackground", "BACKGROUND")
    TargetFrameHealthBar.background:SetTexture(0, 0, 0, 0.5)
    TargetFrameHealthBar.background:SetAllPoints()
    TargetFrameTextureFrameHealthBarText:ClearAllPoints()
    TargetFrameTextureFrameHealthBarText:SetPoint("CENTER", TargetFrameHealthBar, "CENTER", 0, 0)
    TargetFrameManaBar:ClearAllPoints()
    TargetFrameManaBar:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", 5, -45)
    TargetFrameManaBar:SetHeight(17)
    TargetFrameManaBar.background = TargetFrameManaBar:CreateTexture("TargetFrameManaBarBackground", "BACKGROUND")
    TargetFrameManaBar.background:SetTexture(0, 0, 0, 0.5)
    TargetFrameManaBar.background:SetAllPoints()
    TargetFrameTextureFrameManaBarText:ClearAllPoints()
    TargetFrameTextureFrameManaBarText:SetPoint("CENTER", TargetFrameManaBar, "CENTER", 0, 0)
    TargetFrame.threatNumericIndicator:SetPoint("BOTTOM", PlayerFrame, "TOP", 75, -22)
end
* new code for mop version

Just for the testing i hide the targetgraphic.
Code:
    TargetFrameTextureFrame:Hide()

Problem solved. After somebody told me how to extract the Blizzard Code by myself it was easy to find the frame (TargetFrameBackground).
