Pavel,
I have an old photo that shows the back clamp pretty clearly with the spacer, the clamp around the pump is slightly different as it is centered, not off to one side.
The details on the front one is unclear.
I assume it is mounted at an angle so you can operate the pump without your hand hitting the wires or fabric.

Jeff,
I posted one of these when you were making your rudder pedals.






Knowlton and Ottawa using the same clamp and spacer arrangement with centering clamps on the pump not the 'P' clamps that everyone else seems to use. No idea what sources others use but I'm pretty confident that the photos are accurate. This is what I used for my pump. Note the difference in mounting ie one above and one below the tube mounts.

Regards,
John

Hi All,
I spent today painting the outer wing fittings.
Some of these photos should look familure.




I matched the epoxy paint to the color chip I got from Dan~San Abbott
