The flex plate connects to the crankshaft and bolts to the torque converter. The flex plate also has a ring gear that meshes with the starter. If the flex plate is in good condition it can be re-used. Check the gear to make sure that none of the teeth are worn. If all teeth are still in good shape and there are no cracks in the flex plate it can be reused. very commonly found in older ford f250

How do you change a flex plate on a Chevy 350?
unbolt the torque convertor and separate the transmission from the engine. the flex plate is attached to the crankshaft by 6 bolts that use an 11/16" socket. You'll probably need a tool to prevent the engine from turning because the bolts are usually very tight. You may need to heat the bolts to get them out. Sometimes there is loctite on the threads.
