It's just the 1/4 inch rod. You hook the cable from the handle to it. That rod is like 4 or 5 ft long. It has a loop on the end.
Call Dan Benjamin for parts. P M me for the phone number.

It took me a long time to wrap my head around the idea of having 2 rotating axis' at the same place. (like a modern Dempster.) Of course yours only has one, the pumprod. the pullout only rotates above the swivel.
