Want to put headers on my TBI motor when I do my motor swap soon. I was just noticing the one bracket looks a lot like the older A/C bracket that mounts to the manifold.
 
I know with my thorleys, one 'leg' of the AC bracket has to be cut off. In this pic between the #1 & #3 plugs you can see the end of the bracket that I had to cut. I think this is what you are asking about.
 
don't htink it really is, I have a picture now

It looks similar to your setup. I've seen people put a socket between the header and the bracket and it work quiet well. Think I may just chop the second one off like you did and use a socket or something for a spacer.
 
Im trying to remember what the front bolt was setup like, but I think there was a stock spacer already on the front bolt. Mine is a diff setup i had ac drivers side, and non serpentine belts.
