Strap is needed or at least should be used. I see yours is on a rocker cover bolt. Usually I've seen it on the rear bolt on side of head (same one which holds the clamp for wiper vacuum tube from pump). Goes to a convenient screw on firewall as shown here. Not really important which bolt on engine but needs to be a good solid ground point. That is the only decent size solid or direct connect to battery ground for everything grounded to body.

Hose clamp also used and a drawing shows hose routing on page 12, figure 2 in accessories section of SM.
