Hello Gerard,

Sorry to see your damaged 320 in the passenger legs compartment area.
The damaged area is well in front of the main spar and also positioned
between two motor mount attach points.
The upper mount is positioned just below the longeron and fuselage
header tank area.
The lower mount is located on the bottom just outboard from the nose
landing gear tunnel.
Looking at the pictures it appears the damage is not touching any of
these critical positions but may be close to the multi-Bid lay-ups that
support the motor mount hard points.  Most of the damage is just the
fuselage skin which should be readily repaired by knowledgeable repair
shop/builder.
Some pictures of interior area and firewall would be helpful.

Good luck with the assessor and the repair.

Regards
Doug
