plenum throttle cable clamp

What is that plastic clamp attached to the stud sticking out on the driver's side of the plenum that holds the cruise and throttle cables? The stud is between the 3 and 5 intake runners up on the plenum. The top half of mine has broken off and is now lost, so the cables are loose even though they should be neatly held by that clamp? Are they still available? Thanks!

Re: plenum throttle cable clamp

I know the clamp you are asking about. Although it isn't exactly the same, I've found this replacement on eBay:

They seem pretty proud to have those, judging by the price.
