Tom, I have a K45 as well with the same missing tiller bar lever arrangement.
I picked up Arts castings, but never finished the job.
I would love to see pictures of your finished tiller lever setup, and routing of your cable. The only picture ( drawing) I have ever found of a complete setup was in the back of the big red cover Johnson Service manual 10th edition page 613.
Goman, I believe it was used to reduce the back pressure to make the engine easier to pull when starting.
Thanks.
