Title says it. the inner apron and the Z Bar stud bracket rotted away in the 1970's and the mechanic fabricobled this as a replacement:

My restoration guy needs pics of the area to fabricate the repair to the apron and the Z Bar pivot mount stud bracket. I have a pic or 2 of an A/T car apron, but not of the M/T apron. I do have the Service Manual illustration. REAL pics of a REAL M/T car would help A LOT.
 
i posted some not too long ago, let me see if i can drag them up...

unfortunately i've sold the car since so i can't take more.
 
This is as good as I could get. This is on a 64 Valiant. Slant 6 three on the tree. You just can see the top of the proportioning valve for location reference.

I bought one from Brewers after attempting to put a new ball stud into mine. I had added metal to the ball stud with the mig early on after the ball flattened on one side. The last clutch I did I replaced it all with new. The torque shaft was thinned and the ball studs were worn again because of the shaft.
 

THANK YOU ALL. It looks like the bracket mounts so that the ball stud is centered on that have round cut out in the top of the frame. Is that a fair description?

I am subscribed to Brewer's for when the bracket comes back in stock. I do have a line on a used one I will pick up, in case the brewer's one does not come back in stock.
