Where to Safety the Andair Tach Drive Cap?

I have the Andair tach drive cap. It is drilled nicely for safety wire, but I can't find anywhere in that vicinity on the back of the accessory case to safety wire it to.

What have others done? IO-360. Curious on pictures if you have one.
 
Make a small egg-shaped tab out of steel sheet (.016 will do) with a 1/4” hole in the big end, and a _40 hole in the narrow under. Kink up the small end a little. Now mount that under one of the nuts on the vacuums pump adapter and presto! You have a place to which you can anchor a piece of safety wire.

Very cool tip, Paul!
