Chevy did use a brace, but I don't know how common it was. I know they were on a bunch of starters I replaced. Google "chevy starter brace".

I think they're important -- 30 or so pounds hanging on two bolts at one end seems like a bad idea to me. That's a lot of leverage. I do agree that it's not common to see problems caused by a missing one.
