True Duals Headpipe Identification

True Duals Headpipe Identification
Hey Guys,
I bought this set of true duals off eBay [i know.....i know].
They were sold as Rinehart '97-'08 True Duals for Touring. Meant to fit my 2005 Electra Glide Classic.
I ordered the rear bracket/holder from Rinehart as the set did not come with a rear pipe bracket [one that bolts to starter.
Took it to my mechanic and he wasn't able to do any better.
I'm posting a detail pick of left side to see if anyone recognizes this hardware so I can order the right part. Did not look like Cobra or VH when I looked up that hardware. I Think the clamp that sits in the bracket should be a giveaway....it has a long stud coming off the back that is supposed to sit on the holder.
Any ideas?

Was just hoping [and still hoping] that someone would recognize this holder and say, Yeah!, that's a set of Basannis or Vance and Hines or Cobras....that way I can go to the company and order the correct holder.

The bracket should mount to sit on top of starter as you said and bolt in front and in back of it. Then you'll need another piece of hardware that attaches to the exhaust clamp on one side and that bracket on the other by way of a screw, washer and nylon nut.
That set should've come with all that stuff.

They do look like old rineharts (97-08). Could be Vance&Hines too.

So I think what's going on here....at least the way Rinehart explained it is there are two different types of '97-'08 systems. The ones made prior to like 2010 were headpipes made by bub and the 3.5" cans made by rinehart. They were sold as rinehart true duals. After 2010 rinehart started making the whole system in house.
I think I have the "old" pipes and unfortunately they don't stock the "old" hardware to go with it....only the new stuff.
Basically, I have all the parts outlined in the instructions that come with their new sets located here:

Do those parts on page 4 look like what you had on your Road King?
