Default Where does it go?

Just resealed my power steering pump and had this bracket left over. Where does it go?

Mystery bracket
What happens when the Rock Auto delivery takes a week to arrive. I forget where stuff goes. BTW rack and pump rebuild was successful!

Default Alternator

Do you have one on the back of your alternator also? I have one on the back of my smog pump and one on the back of my alternator (91 base L98).

This too. In the photo above, look at the bottom-left of the alternator.

Not sure if the accessory drive on the third gens is the same but I vaguely recall once from the PS pump to something... its been about 3 years since I went that deep on that car though. I know my 84 is supposed to have 2 off the alternator.

Could there be a front side one on the smog pump... looking around online I see that mentioned... otherwise hopefully someone has a FSM.

That looks similar to the brace that goes on the rear of the AC compressor to the exhaust manifold stud on my 85. Did you happen to take the compressor off while you were doing this?
