Evinrude 15 E15RCRM manual start lockout pawl, where does spring go?

[rernst]

1984 Evinrude 15hp manual start only, no remote controls, etc. model E15RCRM

Pawl kept hitting starter, spring on pawl seemed broken, bought new pawl and spring, found first pic to show how spring is supposed to go, but my starter housing/bracket is different. Spring doesn't reach it.

Where is it supposed to hook/go so it keeps the pawl out of the starter when it's not needed/pressed in?

Thanks!
