Under the car, each side of the tranny nose. The mixer boxes are bolted to what 
amounts to the lower back of the back seat. These elbows are on top of those 
mixer boxes. 

Or, Bentley, ch. 3, fig 5-1, item 15. Mixer boxes are item 5, missing screw is 
item 4. The # 15s sit right on top of the item 5s when installed in the car.
