Default Recognize this spring?

If I can e-mail this to someone (I can't compress the file on my computer), does anyone recognize this spring? I have a '93 GT and am now told that it is used to push the clutch fork. Does this sound correct?

Prior to this, this was being called "the clutch return spring." However after researching on here, calling Ford parts etc, this car doesn't have a "return spring."

If anyone knows what exactly is being referred to, is there any Ford part number on this? Thanks.

Please leave an e-mail address, or PM me and I can send the file. Thanks in advance.

I think this should work, I made a photobucket album since the file is too large.

Please tell me what you know about it. I also have anotehr post I am putting up about a T-5 rebuild kit, and could use some advice there. Should be up soon.
