'65 Dart Slant Six Clutch Linkage picture?

Here's what I'm dealing with...sorry the pictures are bad. I need a new camera or I need to enter the cell phone age. It looks like the lower arm on my torque shaft is bent in the wrong direction. Wrong torque shaft or did someone bend it on purpose? Old cars are a mystery...
