This might be asking a lot. If someone has a reference photo of the hardware that holds the armature/motor housing to the tinplate chassis section of a 259 I would be greatly appreciate it. My original hardware was missing and i would like to replace it with something resembling a factory appearance. The front section of the motor housing has tabs that index into a slot in the front near the steam chest and the the rear of the motor housing lines up with a square hole on the tinplate chassis. I figured I could use my 259E as a reference but its different because the e-unit  basically blocks the mounting area found on a 259. Henceforth the the bent s-shaped piece of metal found on the 259E that secures it to the tinplate chassis. Also I noticed the 259E has a pressed threaded brass stud that the motor housing attaches to. Again, my thanks in advance.
