Unhappy Clock ground

I have a '72 Cutlass. Is there supposed to be a ground wire attached to the back of one of the clock housing nuts? My service manual shows one. I installed a supposedly "working clock" with no success. The only ground I could detect was that metal strap on the dash instrument face where one of the mounting screws goes in, thereby making contact with the clock housing. I guess I need this other wire as well? The clock power feed is hot, as well as the lamp feed.
Thanks, Chumley
