Help with PS conversion

I am converting my sons 71 C10 (350 AT) to Power Steering. I have assembled the components but like many others I am having difficulty with the pump brackets.
Based on the photos attached, can you help me identify if I am missing additional parts of the bracket? I have an assembly manual but cannot find this specific bracket style in it. Photos or drawings would be especially appreciated!
Also, can anyone recommend an aftermarket bracket setup in case I need to go that route?
Thanks!

Maybe this will help. These brackets show up for sale in the parts section quite often.

Thanks John
I don't believe that is the bracket assembly I have.
There were several options and I'm beginning to wonder if the one I have pictured is from a later model (not a 67-72).

Still looking for a diagram of how this particular bracket mounts.
THANK YOU

Alan Grove Components make some excellent power steering brackets for small and big block Chevys. Reasonably priced also. Google them.
