Default Steering wheel lock pin/ bolt?

I’m working on a 1972 standard steering column and seems there may be some parts missing. Should the standard steering column have a pin or bolt attached to the ignition mechanism to lock the steering wheel in place when the ignition is off? I have only been able to find the locking pin for tilt/ tele steering columns. The second part I might be missing but I’m not sure if was an option on the standard steering column is the key warning buzzer contacts. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
