After driving over an big ice rock getting out of a parking spot, these small plastic parts came off the bottom of my 2006 ES 330. What are they?

They look to me to be spark plug wire separators. Like these, but the dealer will have the exact ones.....

Or they could be the clips that hold the brake/fuel lines under the car.

Most likely, the ice chunk knocked them out of the belly pan, where they were already lying loose.
I've been under the car many times and I just don't recall anything like that readily exposed down low. Nor do they look like something Toyota or another maker would put in that kind of position.
Corkman is probably right and they were down there from some prior service and the tech did not want to fish them out after dropping them.

I think you're right!!!! What is that line, Fuel?? And the better question, are those clips important enough to worry about a couple of them falling off?

Hahaha nice pun . do you know how dangerous it is to just leave it be? (I have no idea how important those brake line clips actually are).

Probably both brake and fuel lines, or maybe just fuel. Either way they are important you don't want the lines flapping around and snagging on something if that happens a simple repair will turn into a very expensive one.
Part number is 77298-06040 there are three of them total looks like you need to order two.
