Default Hood cable clamp

I'll be replacing corroded hood cable soon. PET shows that cable itself is held by clamp - circled in the picture below. Any idea where it should be bolted to? There is no obvious location, the only place that comes on my mind is one of the bolts holding coolant distributor pipe?

Nobody? It must be somewhere if PET lists it...

I just took a peak in my engine bay (turbo is out so I have a clear shot to the fire wall), I didn't see any sort of clamp (unless they mean the one that holds the end of it tight to the hood release mount). That doesn't mean there isn't one, just that my car doesn't have one, a lot of small stuff that should be on the car hasn't been there.

Hmmm, maybe you are right and it is the clamp that holds the end of the cable? It looks completely different but PET is wrong in few places so maybe it's another one?

No clamp under the hood on my 86 either, though it's possible the car had one at some point.
