I believe the relay would have mounted above that half round plate, just to
the right of the tape on that wire in the upper left of your photo that looks like
it might be the place. This requires a stubby Phillips driver from above to
install.
On my '68, that tended to get water on it from above when the drain tubes
from the vents clogged, so I made an "umbrella" from plastic film that I stuck
on top of the relay with double stick tape. That saved the relay from future
water attacks.
