I'm not sure which brackets you are referring to? Which manifold are you using? The RC manifolds had a receptacle for the end of a cable outer on each end, for use with a two-into-one cable. The MPD manifolds had a central receptacle for a single cable. 
Don't fix it if it ain't broke!

Could be anything or any brand manifold Top gun , need a pic of manifolds.
The most common Delorto distributers in OZ were / are ? Lynx industries. The produced their own manifold and rubbers and air cleaners.
I installed a few sets and they were OK. I liked watching the rubber manifolds pulse at idle they were so thin.
I don't know if Lynx are still in the game , they were Sydney based. Google them top gun and see what happens,

Hi Guys the manifolds are Lynx and the previous owner made a custom set-up for the throttle cables but I can't for the life of me work it out so I thought it would be easier to make or source the original version which look quite simple
