MG TD TF 1500 - TF CLOCK Question

In the attached photo is a picture of the rear of the
electric clock motor and a mystery strap that I believe is associated. Some 30 years ago I wrapped these two items together when disassembling the car.
Does anyone know what the strap is and where does it go? All I can think of that perhaps it is a ground strap?
Thanks.

RT - That strap was part of a seal that was under one of the coil housing to pump body on a SU fuel pump. The strap was then folded over and a lead seal crimped the two ends together. They were mostly found on very early, brass body low pressure pumps and later on the high pressure, long body AUA 54 pumps. Cheers - Dave
