Driver side ground strap?

I'm close to finishing putting a new 6.7l in my truck and forget where the ground strap above the brake master cylinder that's hooked to the frame where the hood seal is goes to. I feel like it might have been on the bracket that holds the transmission dipstick and is screwed into the bell housing but can't remember. Any ideas?

I think I figured it out. I looked at the back of my old driver side head and there was a screw I left barely screwed in which would line up with the strap location and length. So if that is correct wouldn't there be a ground strap for the other head?

You’re probably correct. I took a look at mine and the strap disappears behind the CCV so in the direction of the head.

Thanks. I don't see any type of strap for the other head. I do recall the 6.0 or 6.4 had a strap for each head but I guess the 6.7 just 1.

Me neither. I presume it’s only to that head. The main ground will be to the starter motor on the other side anyway.
