If I recall, that part fo the throttle linkage is an arc-shaped bent hollow tube of sorts to span across the LH inner CV joint flange. However, if the metal rods on either side of said hollow bent tube are also bent, it is possible that the hollow bent tube could contact the CV joint flange. That may have ripped it right off.

Or so it seemed last time I was looking around in the LH wheel well. Not the brightest design I've ever seen ... but then again it usually seems to work.
