Spring 22 is the brake / belt release spring.
It goes into a hole in the plate # 2 and pulls forward.
You should see wear marks in the paint
The spring is stretched about 1" to 2" when the PTO is off so use a bit of string stretched from the hole in plate 2 to locate the mounting point, usually a hole as well in the deck.

Thank you, will have my husband take a look at it, and see if this helps him out. May be back!
