M120 engine; where does this part go?

I got this part, #24 on the diagram below, p/n 120 158 01 73, that EPC says is a "Lock, lower part, left". I thought this is for the distributor cover on the left, but I can't figure out where is goes, or what it locks.

Here's a photo also.

I have your style, but the lock is for the other side according to the EPC.
They show the part number for the cover for the other style, but not for the lower part shown in your second photo.

You may be right about the lock. But I'd like to know for sure.

Thanks! With staring at your photo, and my parts, I finally figured out how it works. It mounts at an odd angle, but it snaps into place.

Here's a picture of it in place in the lower part of the distributor cover assembly.

I didn't have the covers on either side, and the lower part that the cover attaches to on the left side. I saw the lock on the EPC, thought I needed it, so I ordered it.
