BTW when you used my quote in your reply I gave two reasons for the bracket, and after putting so many of those things in, I think the latter is the reason the bracket is there: to aid in the installation.
Yes, that is the bolt I am talking about and finding a shop that rebuilds is probably going to be my only option...have to break out my Hemmings...

And you are correct, to have something to hang the starter on during install/removal would be very helpful...
