Default Bracket Identification

I have been going through a lot of my Pontiac brackets and trying to identify them and I cannot find out what this one fits. Looks like it might be an a/c bracket or even an alternator bracket. Of course no part numbers can be found on it. Thanks.

Thanks for the input, I guess it could be a chevy bracket, but I can't figure how I ended up with it. I haven't parted out anything other than Pontiacs. I don't understand why some brackets have part numbers on them, and some brackets do not. Guess I will try to dig a little deeper on the Chevy side to see if I can find a match.

1970's Olds small block alternator bracket - non-Firebird type. This set came off a 350 Olds in a '77 Buick.

Here's a set I restored.

The bracket on the right is a direct match of the one I have. Now I am really wondering how I ended up with it, haven't messed with any Buicks or Olds of that vintage.

Thanks for the info!
