Does this clutch pushrod look right?

I know on a C3 it is supposed to be offset, but this looks bent.

Also, I am contemplating replacing the Z-bar with one of those spherical links. Where was that to be found again?

Is this it:

It also looks like the stud on the adjustment block is worn a bit. Might give you some slop.

If you're looking heim joint ends, you can get them from speed direct. I put this kit in and all my rattling stopped and the linkage is smoother, and easily adjustable
