your not sure if it is on the AC (passenger) or alternator (drivers side?)

If it is the longest straight looking ones, I would take a guess that is goes on the AC bolt to the exhuast manifold.

TRy fitting it to the top bolt towards the back, of the 4 bolts that hold the AC compressor on the bracket. it will go between the bolt head and the AC compressor.

then see if it reaches to the exhuast manifold stud which should be the third one back, counting from the front.

I am trying to find a picture.

the bracket im looking for is the longest of all bracket used. Its around 30cm long. And I cant find the place for it.
The 3 "small" ones I have found.
Is there any long bracket that holds the A/C in place?

I am going to email you a picture. it is not a good one, but I hope it is enough.

I circled the bracket in red. it goes on the back, top AC compressor bolt, that mount sit to the AC bracket.

The other end goes down under the engine, you can see where. It goes to the 3rd exhuast manifold stud. This will be the stud above the number 4 cyclinder spark plug.

Here is another bad picture I found of the bracket mounted on the AC.
