Need 526 carb linkage...at least a picture????

Home away from home

When we acquired our 526 Convertible Coupe early this year, it had a Zenith carb with some fabricated linkage. The car did run, and I did get it up to 42 mph.
Subsequently, we acquired a proper carb, but now need to buy or fabricate the necessary linkage.
Any close up pictures....helpful hints about fabricating...offer of spare parts...would be greatly appreciated.

Probably not exactly the same but here's a very similar arrangement on a 2nd Series Single Eight. Note what appears to be the same bracket on the exhaust manifold providing the rear pivot point for the rotational actuating rod.

This is the set up on the 633 which I would expect will be very similar to the 526. Its a bit hard to photograph with the spare wheel in place.
