What is this part?

Where does this little bracket go on a 1965 Barracuda 273 auto trans? It appears to hold a small diameter steel tube in place.

Looks like a parking brake adjuster pawl for the rear drums

For the right side of the car!

It’s the auto adjuster arm for the right side brakes. Front or rear.

Yup. What the other guys said. Brake adjuster.

Thanks a lot, guys. It was in with my old engine parts. I thought maybe it should hold the gas line on the from of the engine. Anyone want to buy a nicely restored and painted brake adjuster? Hahaha
