Apparently, the mystery continues. 

Does anyone have a PB parts list that might show the different clamp might
have been used on PB production at some time? My copy is late enough (1945)
but doesn't list the part separately.

For people joinging this thread late, see
http://www.roundaboutmanor.com/airline/distclamps.htm
And tell us the source of the clamp marked "?"

Cheers,
Lew Palmer

Jack , that's exactly the same clamp my PB has, too.
