Million to one shot, but I'm at a dead end. Nothing on the Cadillac boards, I found bearings but no clips. I saw a similar one for $5, BUT $94 shipping? I am almost ready to pay but it's only similar. Tis is the only thing keeping the engine out of the car.
1941 Cadillac 346 engine with a manual transmission. I believe it's on all up to 1952.
Is this the similar one you found?

Trying checkout shipping was $35 for UPS Ground. Still high but better than $90
Looks like you could make your own out of these.

these are the real old car and parts guys , I am sure someone has that clip or knows what will fit ,
Good Luck
Stampie, Stampie, Stampie, why the heck didn't I think of that? 69 cents and a little bend and wiggle later, Viola', CLIP.
Easy to tell the factory from the Hammer Mechanic clip, but I'll bet it works better than safety wire I was thinking about. Thank you Stampie, want a box of donuts or something?
All others, thank you for your time and wisdom.
