Not sure why by one of my POs has used a U-bolt to hold down one of the tubes in the tunnel. At this point I am not sure what goes in the tube (poor documentation on my part), but anyway I am wondering if there is a better way to repair this.

Someone cut a couple extra holes in the top of the tunnel and it looks like the brace for this tube was welded to the location where the hole was cut. Or maybe the brace broke.

and finally a shot from under the car.

This is the larger of the the 2 tubes running to the pedal cluster. The smaller one is tucked up high on the top side near the driver.
Q1: Clutch or Accel?
Q2: Should I just leave the u-bolt? Better idea?
Q3: surface rust throughout the tunnel. Impossible to get to. I was thinking of using the Eastwood interior frame spray as a rust killer. Better ideas?
Thanks,
Clark
