That's a connection for ground. I think it's the one running through one of the starter bolts. I just did my clutch a few weeks ago and remember undoing it.

Does your starter have three wires on it?
The instructions on the DIY Clutch thread indicate there's only 2, and if I removed this from the starter, I uncharacteristically left the nut on the bolt. Maybe it goes to the negative terminal on the battery? |

The starter itself has 2 wires, a positive cranking wire and a signal going to the solenoid. But the two long bolts that hold the starter to the trans/motor, one of them is bolted through that bracket you pictured. It's the ground for the starter and block in general.
![]() Sorry for the slightly cruddy picture angle, it was rainy out and I tried jabbing my phone in that area. The starter bolt runs through the hole in the bracket.
