What is this?

Thanks guys. The same friend that has the lever, also has a complete used original unit he is willing to sell, so that is the way I'd like to go which means I can just fit the mirror again where it belongs. It involves some work ofcourse. I have always managed to circumvent this through-the-handlebar replacing of wires chore, but I guess it's my turn now. Others did it, so it must be doable.
@ Bryanj. My model bike is still streetlegal without mirrors, but - to be honest - it's a bit risky imo. The bike looks much nicer without them and I was often tempted to ride withouth them. But nowadays my head/neck arrangement doesn't turn so easily anymore, so better to stay on the safe side.
@Matt. I am not sure the broken part can be welded again, but I'm no expert.
Oh and the mystery of that little half moon shaped thingy is solved. I remember now I've helped my neighbour some months ago fitting an EI on his '64 Puch MS50V and that we had to remove a wedge from his crank. We did this at the very same spot in the garage.

Actually they do Ted, there are 2 fitted to the 500/550 and most likely the other SOHCs as well.
Can you guess where they are?

No, you know where they are, that's cheating. If you didn't know I'd be more surprised
