Great, thank you!
No idea who sells that clip.
It's the first time, I see how this linkage looks - the one that locks the ignition key over the "shifting tube" when there is a manual transmission. I assume that thing is often absent - as it is in my car...
After all these years having a 440 I realized that this means having an attitude... and a budget.

You are indeed correct. A lot are missing. Who wants to put the car in reverse, just to get the key out. A pain in the @ss if you ask me. Especially if your A833 is a little worn out and is hard to get in reverse. Or those straight cut gears are not lined up exactly.
There are originals for sale (usually not complete) and also reproductions.

I have those clips
I also have seen the same whitish looms which hold the wiper hose to the fire wall on the passenger side on an e-body.
When you say you have those clips - do have them on an E-Body or you have them in your pocket trying to use them at Tim Horton's? Yes - A couple of mine have the white straps too.
Here is where it broke off....

Wow - Never seen those frame rail clips on E-Bodies - Only B-Bodies. I don't believe any of my cars have ever had them. Time for a closer look.
Jim. My old 70 challenger 340 had one and the current 70 cuda I'm working on now has one
