Default CABLE, SUB-GROUND (SOHC) routing. '95 EX F22B1

Due to a poor prior installation of a timing belt on the '95 EX there were several bolts missing and broken.
I noted that the 'cable, sub-ground(sohc)', or front engine ground, appeared to have been reinstalled in a redundant way.

#8 in illustration http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/...ARNESS+-+CLAMP
It appears I am missing one of the #18 'BOLT, GROUND (6X16)'. Part # 90149-SE0-003

The best picture I could find of that ground strap is from the most awesome thread here in the '90-'02 Accord forum.
How-To: Replace Timing Belt, Timing Balancer Belt and Water Pump on a F22B1



It appears that the tri-point ground strap should have the heavy wire(#6 AWG?) between both sides of the front engine mount(rubber doesn't conduct well) and the smaller(#14AWG?) wire should go to the cam cover.

Currently the smaller wire is bolted on via the wire harness strap(mounted to the top of the PS bracket), one side of the heavy gauge wire is bolted to the cam cover, and the other end is bolted to the engine side of the front mount. Which is electrically redundant as the front engine grounding is still isolated from the frame through the rubber of the front engine mount.

IMO it should be routed with the heavy gauge wire mounted to both the frame side and engine side of the mount, and that the smaller wire bolts to the cam cover. Can anyone confirm the correct 'cable, sub-ground' routing?

TIA

Bueller?
Bueller?

Can someone do me a favor and pop the hood of their F22 powered '94-'97 Accord and let me know where the cam cover/front engine mount ground strap bolts too? TIA.
