Wedge TR7 Crank and Flywheel assembly

So I'm finally getting around to putting my engine back together, and I was reading the manual for putting the crank/flywheel back on. It sorta seems to show that there's a round disc with 8 holes in it (matching the crank/flywheel holes) that goes on.

But it seems unclear as to whether this disc is on all models or just automatics. Vicky Brit's catalog seems to indicate that it's for automatic trannys also, but not entirely clear (to me).

The problem is, I don't have this part and don't remember taking it off. If I did, I lost it somehow and need another one. Does this disc spacer thing belong on a TR7 5-speed?
 
UPDATE: I remembered I had another manual and just read through it. This plate is called the "Spigot Bush Retaining Plate" in this book. I'd assume that's important. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

So then... none of the catalogs have it as an "available" part. Any idea where to get one? Mabye I'll call the machine shop and see if they ended up with an extra part laying around.
