Bonnet hood lock mechanism and cable attachments

Once again require assistance from anyone who has photos of how they fitted theirs and where another part of the cable is attached to under the fender well areas. I have fitted my hood locks to the cradle/valence of the head lights and strapped the cable around the edge before it trails down to the fender. I will have to buy the oem clips to hold the rest of it in place but I see there is this big steel like stopper section thats way before the firewall and then lastly followed by the cable that fits into the latch inside the cabin area.

I have a slight idea of what to look for in my parts pile of whatever is available but I am uncertain as to what it looks exactly like as to where this silver stopper attaches under the fender. 78185-20080 refers to clamp/accelerator control cable however that cable comes through the top of engine bay and attaches to the brake servo and then throttle body of intake. Anyone have a photo of this p/n and not a drawing of it please. Also where it attaches to.

In the last photo, one can see the smaller steel/aluminum stopper on the side just to the rear of the small white box. I need to see how or what that part attaches to please.

I did look this thread up here and didn't find any photos of what I am looking for or the part number. People only asked how to release the hood and assistance with hood not opening but none as to how to replace the cable or fitment of it under the fender where it attaches to what I am concerned with at this moment in time.
