I need some help Id'ing some 4 speed linkage

I thought i knew what i had...now not so sure...im putting my 68 together and been surfing but,now i have doubts which is which

I personally took this from a 68 m20 bench seat car..still had the reverse switch etc..every single piece was there and im sure it was un touched

this came with a 67-69 style shifter bench seat etc..look at the diff...it was marked 68..and i believed it...but that one weird clevis type link reminds me of old stuff..i think its 67 back, but looking around it seems to be 68 also??

"J" shaped R lever with 3rd small hole is to operate the reverse lights switch I believe.

Other than that, ck the CSM and Assembly Manual, right?

Notice that the shift levers on Ally's picture has two holes to attach shift rods. Short throw/ long throw. I had to change mine to short throw to save my knuckles from banging on the dash.
