Magical Mystery Brackets

I took these off to throw them in the ultrasonic cleaner, and now I've completely forgotten where they go. To make it worse, my (now ex-) phone accidentally met concrete at high velocity, so I don't have pictures of where they went. I'm guessing they belong together, presumably somewhere under the intake manifold. Any guesses?

this might jog your memory:

944online.com Exploded View Porsche 944 Diagrams.

the smaller one is also a support bracket for the intake manifold, IIRC.

actually, i think the smaller one is a support bracket towards the back of the airbox.... it's been way too long....

edit: actually, i think this is the speed and reference sensor electrical connector mounting bracket which is located at the back of the intake manifold.

Yep, that would be it. Thanks. I guarantee I looked right at it when I scrolled through the PET, but I still missed it...

The little one appears a few times in the engine compartment, so I'm guessing there's no telling which one it is without looking at my engine bay. If I can't find a good place for it this time, I'll screw it in somewhere it won't fall off and try again next time. It may just be a wire mount.

you jogged my memory. i think that is exactly what it is. it bolts on, somewhere below the intake manifold and wires are wire-tied to it.

Yep, I"m going with that. No idea why I took it off...

Thanks again!

mall one looks like the bracket that mounts to the rear cam cover, then to the exhaust sniffer tube.

Argiopeweb, they are wiring mounts as you said. I've circled them in this picture.

I hope this helps!

edredas:
Like a boss. That is indeed what they are. I will note that the 90° angle appears many places on the engine, including the rear cam cover.
