I have a HP OMEN 25L and took off and lost the “Top Fan Bracket” awhile ago. I am trying to add another fan and need that bracket but when I called HP no one could really help me. Does anyone know the product code or what exact product this piece come with, I found a picture of it on HPs support page on how to change a fan?

I spent several hours looking and all I got was a name "top fan mounting bracket" but that changed slightly depending on which disassembly video I watched.

 

If the top bezel is removed the case may look like the following

A cable tie can be pushed through the holes and used to secure a fan inside the case.

Fans come in slim or narrow 12mm 15mm 20mm and 25mm  Cut out a square of cardboard 120mm or 140mm and see if you can fit it so it can be cable tied. 

Dimensions here https://voltcave.com/case-fan-sizes/

there are also templates you can buy or print

 

Do not drill any holes unless you remove the motherboard.  Use a thin rubber washer to suspend the fan slightly away from the case so the blades do not touch when spinning.  The bigger the fan the less noise it makes.. Try for a 140 or bigger
