pedals question

I have a question as to whether I have all the parts or the correct parts. Pictured is the hogs head from the inside, two angles from the top, and one from the left side. I know the low pedal is bent out. It is to clear a dropped steering column. The brake pedal has a tab welded to it for the addition of disc brakes. The low pedal sticks out from the casting with bare shaft exposed. Is that right? The low adjustment shaft screwed in from the right side is stepped on the end. I think this is to accommodate the newer removable ears on the band? Does anybody see anything else that looks questionable? Thanks experts.

Looks about right, except you cannot use removeable bands in an aluminum hogshead. Some have ground on the head and the band to make it work, but how much do you want to weaken those parts?
 
Thanks for bearing with me on this stuff, fellas. I have two sets of bands. One set with a removable end, and another set with the end riveted. The profiles look the same to me. Is there another style band that I need, or can I use the non-removable ended bands?

I didn't know that either so they have been in 3 of my cars for 30yrs. I guess if you don't
know they fit?
