You can see where the bracket was from the "grim shadow". It looks like the bolt fell out and someone jammed the bracket between the bellhousing and the dust cover. That gap you're looking at is no big deal if all the bolts are lined up.

relocate the bracket where it's supposed to be and get another bolt and you're done.
