Default firewall wire retainer

Hi All,
I am trying to figure out exactly where to rivet the wiring/vacuum line clip into place. It was loose when I removed the forward harness. I've searched online and some of the pictures that I've seen show what seems to be a bolt with a nut and some appear to be riveted in different locations. There is a hole in the brake pedal bracket that is slightly off center. Would this be the correct place to drill up and through the top for this rivet? The AIM comes up empty for this one.

Not sure of what year your car is...
My '72 has no wiring clip in this spot. It does have one attached to the firewall further to the left.
