    Pretty sure - at minimum - all TD's and all Mk2 NA had them.

    got word the dual outlets on earlier (mk1) cars had them but the toilet bowl single outlet didn't get a bracket so guess my old car had a dual outlet in place of the oj single

    Picture of my untouched virginistic 85
    All Mk1 and Mk2 TD's came like this from Faktry, despite any words you heard.
    And seem to remember most Mk2 NA's were same way Faktry - less 1 of the shields.

    Doesn't mean this is what you want to have/buy.
    But thats what you posted.
    Mk2 DownPipe bracket to back of the block.

    From your post on GTD - it sounds more like what you really want is something to secure your
    Head Pipe to the toilet bowl - on an NA application.

    From Faktry
    NA Diesels have exhaust manifolds and headpipes.
    TD has exhaust manifold - DPipe - headpipe
