This counter weight thingy broke. Nobody know what it is can you help? Clutch cable hooks on then goes to pedal. This piece is on or near the transmission.

That weight keeps some tension on the cable when you release the pedal so it doesn't become slack enough to become unhooked on the pedal.

I guess I'd call it a clutch lever. You probably aren't going to find it at the dealership because of the age of the vehicle. You should be able to find one at a salvage yard.
