In checking out the engine compartment, I saw this silver colored clamp on the end of the prop governor:

You are looking down on the governor.
What is it's function? Nothing seems to be attached to it.
Also, it's on there very solidly but there doesn't seem to be a lock washer and the head of the screw has a hole in it...probably for safety wiring. But there is no flange or place to run a safety wire except around the screw/nut assembly.
What is this part? What is it's function? And how would one go about safety wiring it?
Thanks!
