What Idler Arm is this?!

will take all of the pictures that I need today when I get home.

but also to complicate this even more, The steering column that I have is manual, and previous owner told me its from an 80's dodge van.. so how would I ID what centerlink I have? thanks

If the idler you pictured above one top of the blue rag/towel is the one out of your car, the only centerlink that would fit that is the 73-76 centerlink.

The steering column is a manual type or the steering gear is manual?
