OEM Fan Shroud - what am I missing?

I seem to be missing some kind of bracket that looks as though it should sit under or over the OEM fan shroud and allow it to fix against a mounting on the radiator - there is one on the side nearest the battery but having removed the air feed for the airbox for the first time I can see a "bodge" using a cable tie where I think a bracket should be - another hidden "repair" from the past :rolleyes:

 

So please see the attached pic, you can see a captive nut on the rad and a small hole in the plastic fan shroud - I presume the two of these should connect up to hold the shroud in place and would like to make this happen again without the use of a cable tie.

 

Having looked at pics of other cars on the 'net I can't see this hole, perhaps the showcar building company opted to drill it to make the cable tie repair easier for them?

 

I'll try to have a look at some more cars at Squires but if anyone has some insight or EPC pics of this area in the meantime I'd be grateful.

 

Finally if anyone has this missing part knocking around and wants to sell it please let me know :)
