It's just the choke linkage. The photos are confusing in that it looks like it is part of another part. The photo with my finger in it shows if you look carefully the wire linkage goes straight back and then bends left. I think the link is okay. I just need to end that attaches to the choke swivel.Looks like the link is part of the shaft https://www.partstree.com/parts/kawasaki-16041-7021/
Yes! That's what I need to know. I think I just need the clip but hadn't seen one before and could not find diagrams that showed it. Big help. Thank you!Yes it looks like the old style metal retaining clip has broken IE worn through.

Either the choke shaft (16041-0028) needs replacing or just use the newer plastic clip.
