Looking for brackets for U302

I am looking for the bracket that mounts on the block under the spark plugs on my U302 that holds the power steering lines. I am also looking for a matching bracket to hold the second set of hydro remotes. I would like to find one that matches the MM bracket already on the tractor.

As far as I know that is an aftermarket bracket for the hydraulic couplers so they shouldnt be that hard to find. It looks like a Pioneer or Safeway brand. I believe the G1000 models were the first MMs to use the fixed brackets as those. The original MM ones for the other models before 1967, were a single flat iron with an end bracket for swivel purposes, and a separate clamp for each hose. Here is a parts listing picture and one of the reproduction brackets for them that I make.

The hydro bracket actually is stamped Minneapolis Moline. The ones you have pictured are like the ones on my 53 UB.
 
Im guessing they were made by a company for most brands as I had one that was the same as yours with IH on it. If it is stamped Minneapolis Moline I would see about finding an old G1000. You might find one there better than anywhere else. The bracket I have pictured came out in about 1957 and was used on the 5 Stars and then the 445s. The clamps I pictured for the hoses have been used since 1950 and were used up until 1967. These brackets were used on the ZB UB and GBs.

Looks like I can get a very similar hydro bracket from TSC. Any ideas on the bracket/plate used to secure the power steering lines to the block. Even if I had some pictures with dimensions I think I could make my own. I have just had no luck finding one.
 
I can do some checking in the parts books and see if I have something here that is the same so I can get you some dimentions. I do have a 445 that they might have used the same one on that I can atleast measure for you if you dont get any replies.
 
From what Ive found in the parts books the 445, 4 Star, Jet Star 3, and the U302 use the same clip. There are two of them, part number 10A8087. I can see if I have them on the 445s I have and get you some dimentions.
 
Alan, the 302. 1964 to 69 had 4 steering lines running right under the blocks and above the crankcase side cover. The only tractor that used this flat bracket is the u 302. The 302 had a flat plate with a spacer behind it.
 
Joe, is this the plate you are talking about? I always thought they had that style. Found this in my literature.

Yes that is the plate. I think I could make one if I had some pics of an existing one. In my pic you can see where the lines have worn where the plate used to be.
