Default Ignition shielding

This is all I have for the shielding from my 71 350. Im sure it’s incomplete, other wise not in too bad of shape. I think the orange brackets are also for that? If not, can someone tell me what they’re for. Thanks,

Yes.
The top holes of the brackets have a nut tacked in place that captures a wing nut that holds the distributor shield and vertical wire shields in place.
Regards...

Typical for 71 base engine right -side:
Ignition shielding (Distributor, vertical wire shield, 1 pc horizontal wire shield)
Spark plug heat shields (2 per side)
Spark plug wire exhaust heat shield. (1 per side)
Various brackets, bolts and wing nuts.
