Picture of linkage

I have a 1992 Cummins I took the head off to get it resurfaced and rebuilt and now I forgot how the throttle linkage was assembled to the side of the engine. The head, exhaust, and every thing is now assembled, torqued, and valves adjusted. Now, several months later and after recovering from a leg injury, it isn't obvious how the linkage fastens to the engine. I think one bracket is on backwards making it not aparent how it assembles.

It would really help me if some one would email me a picture of that side of the engine or point me to a great site that has clear pictures of how to reassemble it correctly.

P.S. Incidentally, to adjust the valves, I bought the barring tool from Cummins in Atlanta, GA, and for about $24 I really prefer using that to the bolts on the alternator or other method of turning the engine. The timing pin location was difficult to find until I used the, "watch #6 until it's at crossover (one rocker going up, the other going down at the same time)" from the web page http://dodgeram.org/tech/dsl/valve_adj/12_valve.html .
