sorry to sound dumb but is that just the standard alarm that comes on the car? does the car has a transponder unit? that goes with the ECU and the piece around the ignition barrel and the head of the key?

It's the standard Alarm Subaru Uk fitted to all their cars from about 2001, possibly the classics too, not sure.

As everyone has said, its the alarm box. You need security screw bits to open it.
The keys are coded to the ECU on your year car, so not sure if it would have a separate transponder unit in the same area.

Yes, or mappers can re-code I've heard.
You could check if you do have a transponder unit. Checkout the online part system here:
