Looks home-made to me. Bracket might even fit; maybe someone liked the hood open farther?
 
Greg, my prop rod runs 32 inches....
 
Greg, here is a pic of mine. Also 32" long.

Thanks fellows. I been had again on Ebay. Alfa33047 [Bill Close] is going to look for one for me. What a great guy!

They are also available new from TRF. P/N 602096 is the assembly including the prop rod, bracket and safety catch. If your rod is missing, it's a safe bet the bracket is broken (common problem).
