MG TD TF 1500 - Engine steady/control link

Does anybody have a good shot or a diagram on how the engine side engine steady bar bracket on the TD is fixed to the engine? It is very difficult to see in there or even get a camera in to take a photo with the rad and fan belt installed. Is the bracket mounted on the lower left hand side water pump stud?

Bracket 118 goes on the water pump lower bolt and stud.

Yep goes on two lower water pump bolt/studs, is covered by the pulley so put that on after.

Does this help Declan, the bolt that can be seen is a larger than standard one fitted by PO into a oversize tapped hole in the block.
