OK, WHAT IS IT?

[Swifster]

There is a bracket on the right side of my 289 just forward of the dipstick that is held in place by a head bolt. What is this bracket for? Does anyone have a picture of this bracket doing it's intended job? Thanks!

Thanks Gordon,

It's probably facing the right way, as it's angled towards the rear of the engine. Good to know as I won't need it with a 4-speed. Maybe I'll get $50 bucks for it [)]?
