Default Neg battery cable

I've looked thru a bunch of pictures, and the assembly manual, and still can't figure this out
69 Chevelle: What was the neg battery cable bolted to. The engine block, or the alt bracket?

It should be grounded to the P/S head,not block,2-1/2" in front of the #8 spark plug.(towards the fan)
There's a threaded provision there for a 9/16" bolt.

I should have said head, not block. Anyway, thanks for the help. I think this is correct.
