my newly acquired used YT1000 LT1000 mower has suffered some removal of parts by DPO that result in throwing the deck belt
after much research it appears it should have a metal-rod-U-bent keeper by the front PTO pulley - it does not show in the sketchy parts diagram i downloaded
i am guessing it is the part(s) pictured below, but have no idea how/where they are mounted to the frame

all ideas appreciated
