Help! What's this clip used for?

[pedro]

A friend of mine and I are fixing this '90 Mustang, but then we moved it from the garage outside his house and this thing just fell off. Any idea?

Thanks!

Some type of cable? Parking Brake,clutch, brake lines?

I've never seen that on any Mustang I've worked on.

VSS Sensor?

could possibly be the retaining clip for the hyperfootinating valve

to me it looks similar to the clip used to hold on the driven speedometer gear

I'm tempted to say its too clean and new looking to actually have been from the Mustang.

It does kind of look like the speedo cable clip, but that has a hole in it for the hold down bolt, doesn't it? I don't recall exactly, because I lost mine and fabricated one out of a washer with a Dremel, haha.
