I used one from Holley on my 3310.

The top square area with the slot in it is where the cable goes. The bottom is for the kickdown linkage. My cable is round too... But it fits in the slot and stays there... If I remember right, the stock one is square too.

This is the only case that the round peg fits in the square hole [with a little filing.]
