MG TD TF 1500 - TF spare wheel carrier

Has anybody got a photo and/or dimensions of the small finger like piece that is on the spare wheel carrier for wire wheel cars. Thanks

Here is the hook on TF681. This one may twisted a little toward the left. Should probably point straight toward the rear. Disregard clamps on second photo - they are for a 3rd brake light.

The hook protrudes between the wires on the wheel to keep it from rotating. Not very visible, so doesn't need to be perfect.

My 55 doesn't have that piece. Only three owners plus over 20 to 30 years in storage. ?? PJ
