We need to know Model and Serial numbers to get the correct image for your deck. I did a Google image search for "John Deere R72 parts diagram" and got hundreds of different images for decks.

On my deck I do not see the opening for the cotter key to hook the spring to , also
If the hook fastens on the deck where does the top hook , hook to., I must be missing something,

Ok the spring is there to create tension for the deck belt so the blade will spin. it looks as though it connects to part #21. I am not sure of this but from the picture that is where I would start looking. Whole in deck could be plugged with grass or dirt. Just poke around a little with a screwdriver and see if you can find it.
