(OP)
If you need to understand why I am doing this here is why: I am trying to conceal a drain and a vent pipe in the wall of my basement (this is the outer wall of my basement)

This is the current situation

And this is what I need as final result.

I think it is meant to keep together the double joists that are on each side of the pipes and there is already a double piece like that before
It is attached using hangers ...here is a detail
I could probably take it out, rotate that elbow in position under the upstairs toilet so that it connects back to the position of the new drain pipe
and then put the piece of wood and the stringers back
