Default Mounting an LT1 coolant tank (pics request)

Anyone with an LT car have pics showing how the expansion tank mounts? It sits up on the top passenger side of the engine bay. I bought one I want to retro fit to my car (L-98) and am going to have to make my own bracket. I'd like to see the stock one though so I can get a visual, thanks.

the bottom locator pin goes into a rubber insulator mounted in a simple L-bracket bolted to the square support rod from the hood latch to the frame.
