Horizon pointer I believe.

I believe you are asking about the small veritcal arrow pointing upward just below the horizin. That is the "horizon pointer" and has 3 degrees of blank space on each side of it on the horizon line. In this picture finding the horizon is no problem, but it is designed to help the pilot locate the horizon in the HUD.
