Early 2000e gearbox bracket / chassis mount.

Trying to establish the type of gearbox mount brackets that were originally used on S1/S2 close ratio gearboxes with flat bottoms and two taped holes.
This is not either of two types of Ford 2000e metalastic mounts used, but the metal bracket that fixes to the bottom of the gearbox tail housing, into the (narrower spaced 2no. taped holes), that the rubber / metal mounting is fixed
to.
I have seen a couple of versions used, one is flat steel strip bent to "top-hat" type of section, that mates with the earlier S1/2 metalastic mounts, the other, a single "bullion-bar" single metal shape that is bolted to the two holes then utilises the later S3/4 metalastic joint.
Can someone please confirm what was OEM mounting for the flat bottomed mounting on the early S1/2 gearbox please?
Cheers,
Phil.

I think I saw something about this on the site a short while back, it may even have been in the Archives as I was looking for something else.
The factory parts book gives flat bottom bracket as D026 A 0002,
the flat spacer that sits between this mounting and the gearbox as 050 B 1000 (x2)
the "V" shaped mounting as 118E 6068B

These are the components shown in the parts book, cannot see your pics due to watermark across the centre.
As a suggestion have you spoken to Tony Thompson about it, as they have been dealing with the earlier cars it may be worth a call
