Default Clutch fork linkage help

Hey guys, I need some help with connecting the linkage to my clutch fork. I can’t find an exploded photo or a video with this style of fork and I can’t figure out how these pieces could possibly work together. Wondering if I’m missing a piece. Thank you! This is my clutch fork

That doesn't look like a Corvette clutch fork. Perhaps for a Chevy pickup?
some pics from the factory manual.

Yeah you have the wrong fork. The Corvette fork has a slot in the end with a pin that engages the push rod from the Z-bar. I assume you can figure out the rest.

wrong fork, end should have a slit and not a round pyramid divot , must be for a different car

the end of the rod goes into the slit and held by a barrel type plug

check eBay 100.00 to 300.00

you should have an assembly manual for your year of car
makes it simpler and has part numbers so you can buy the correct items
