Alternate Under Hood Ground?

I'm trying to hook up my battery tender junior. I see where people are posting pics of a silver ground post near the air box, but my car doesn't have that. No idea if it was left our during a repair or if I had a drunk assembly line worker? Anyway, is there any other suitable ground under the hood? If not, where in the trunk by the battery should I ground?



Thanks!

It should be just under that rusty screw that holds the fender on (next to the airbox). I see something there behind the windshield washer hose. that's about where it should be. if not, the bracket (from the factory airbox) with the screw sticking up. should work ok. you may have to clean some paint off the threads to get a good ground.
either one should work but I would use the one next to the positive lug.
FWIW it looks like you are missing the front hood gasket as well

Thank you sir. Yes, the dealership that fixed my car after I was hit by a drunk driver left off many pieces that I've noticed here and there since then . Of course they won't own up to it now.

That would be Stonebriar Chevrolet in Frisco, TX.
