Your photo is really tiny and won't open and you didn't say what you want for it.

Yes that is correct it is a bellcrank for a 1965 Olds 442 that we are restoring to original factory condition. Here are the GM part numbers.

GM Part# 387137 BELLCRANK ASSY (EXC L77-L78)
or
GM Part# 390251 BELLCRANK ASSY (L77-L78)

These numbers are from the 1965 Oldsmobile Division parts manual for V8 model 442

Can anyone help me find this part?

This is probably your best bet to ask that question over here:
http://w29.boards.net/

That is a primarily '65 442 site and those guys have lots of stuff laying around.

I have a 65 with the factory 4 speed bell crank, I had to buy 2 of them to get enough parts to make one work halfway decent and that doesn't look anything like a stock one. It has the right arm but the mount is totally different, that almost looks like an adapter to make it fit into cars that had an automatic bell crank.
Not giving you crap just never saw one that looks like that.

X2 No tricarb in '65, linkage side of picture looks like it would work, mount to firewall has 90 degree bend to attach to firewall, believe 64 is same. Great info on Bro65, covers 65 442 only. Information on there about some late in model year "possible" tricarb. Good luck with resto, pictures are always appreciated.

If you can send me a picture of it and call me so we can see if it is what I'm looking for.
