Photos of OMP to throttle linkage

I accidentally bent my omp rod that goes to the throttle assembly while cleaning it, does anyone have a picture of how it is supposed to be bent?

Edit: Also, is the part the rod connects to on the omp lever supposed to rotate or is it fixed?

Ok, I think I got a good enough picture from the parts manual to figure out how the rod was bent. But I still haven't figured out if the part the rod goes through that connects it to the oil metering pump is supposed to rotate or if its fixed on the lever on the pump

The connector on the OMP lever rotates. At least it does on my 79 OMP. I think this is what you were asking.

12A, I always forget that there was a13B in the FB...
I freed up the piece and now the whole assembly seems to work much smoother and doesn't stick.
