Just about to remove the hand brake cable from the drum brake backing plate. Before I attack the part marked with the arrow can anyone confirm that it can be replaced with part 12 (clamp) in the OEM parts diagram.

I thought, while I am stripping all this down, I would renew the bearing. Is it necessary to remove/renew the flange arrowed on the hub picture? I cannot find any reference to it on the parts diagram.
