Default 68 Nova/Camaro power brake/ clutch pedal assembly

Looking for someone to verify on a 68 nova/camaro a return spring was used for the brake/clutch pedal assembly on power brake cars?? I was restoring my brake clutch pedal assembly from the 68 L79 and noticed from Gregs Nova research page that it was missing the brake pedal return spring. So I went and checked my 68 L78 Nova that also is an original power disk brake car and it also didn't have a return spring? From what I can see on the L78 the diaphram holds pressure against the pedal so no spring would be needed. Can I assume this is correct?

Picture #8 is what caught my eye maybe Greg can explain.

Jason...I will check the yellow car and see if the spring is there...we can also check the parts for the other 68 and see if it has the spring...tom
