R154 Bell Housing brace

I have an R154 gearbox mated to a 7M GTE with a cast brace from the block to the bell housing on RH side only. Can anyone tell me if the standard setup from factory (say..MA70) has a similar brace on left side. There appears to be anchor points there so before I make one up I'd like to know if a standard part might be obtained. ???

there was pair mounted to both the auto (7mgte and 7mge) and the w58 (7mge) so i cant imagine why there wouldnt be one for r154 (7mgte)
could be wrong, but just following the trend.

Correct.
The R154 had the pair as well - they're different from the automatic brackets, unsure if the W58 brackets are the same as the R154 brackets?.

CelicaRA45,
I'm STILL repairing the car from last years big shunt. Aiming to have it ready for round 2 of the state race series, but may do a Group 5 round before that for testing. I'm hoping the car will be a little faster this year as it's lost some more weight in the process.
