<p>Thanks for posting that drawing ... you've solved one of the great mysteries of life! ;>)</p>
<p>I prefer a "B" nut, however, since the cable length is easily adjusted -- once you bend that wire as in the drawing, it's not adjustable and you'd better get it right the first time!</p>

<p>I found the answer, and in case somebody has the same question, here it is:</p>
<p></p>
<p>There is an assembly manual for the J160 (the aircraft) that details the engine installation: Jabiru-J160-Constructors-Manual.pdf</p>
<p></p>
<p>On page 242 there are details about the installation of cables. This diagram was copied from that page.…</p>

<p>As I recall, that is used to capture the end of a control cable. I assumed the cable is bent into a hook and lays in the recessed cavity. The hollow pin secures it and the washers are retained with cotter pins. To be honest, I never really understood how it would work, so I used <a href="https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/appages/cablendbnut.php?clickkey=49531" rel="noopener" target="_blank">cable end "B" nuts</a> from Spruce for all my control cable…</p>
