That is exactly what happened to me in Virginia at night travelling back to New York from Florida many moons ago. The ear from the compressor sheared off. I used 2 clothes hangers to literally tie the compressor up. It held all the way back to New York. Of course I ditched the PS belt, and travelled without a/c. As for a temp fix, I was able to fashion bracketry out of 2 old school general motors alternator adjustment brackets using another mounting ear on the compressor. Your compressor is probably still functional. Mine was. That shade-tree old school bracket held on for years. When the compressor clutch finally quit I replaced the whole compressor itself, but it functioned without issue for a good 6 years or so.
