The turbo brace is a flat piece of steel with angles at each end. The lower end attaches to the upper, forward stud of the right side engine mount arm. From there, it extend upwards to the exhaust manifold/turbo flange. There is bolt hole in the middle portion of the brace.

The clamp is an Adel type clamp, not a hose clamp. It wraps around the drain tube and secures to the brace with a single nut/bolt.

The clamp location is difficult to see but not that hard to get your hands on. If you can get the tube clamped, it will be pretty solid. Otherwise, it vibrates up and down and wears out the o-ring seals in short order.
