Welcome to FTE!

Brake light switch.

Brake light fuse.

Wires anywhere in the harness.

Is this a single bulb set up, with the brakes and signals using the same bulb?

Gotta be a mechanical pedal switch--up under the dash and touching the pedal arm. OR a pressure switch, on a fitting near the master.

Lucas brake info. (Lucas Girling, right?)

Note the reference to O'Reilly's and the Ford shop manual:

Mostly a trouble-shooting thread:

Not sure where else besides Ford to send you for a parts catalog. You can try here, it was referenced in another thread.
