1933-34 front fender brackets

[33rds]

What is this bracket I have? All I've seen has had an s curve viewed from the top, but this is straight. see the rusty one in the picture.
It came with my 33 which is imported from South Africa.
But the car is manufactured in Canada and assembled in South Africa, I think?
Is this bracket unique to Canada? Or have i only seen 1934 bracket before, and this is how it look like in 1933?

The front fender braces I have are all straight. I have not seen a curved one before.

My 33 front fender brackets are original and not S shaped like the one in your photo. In case the country of manufacture has anything to do with it, mine was built in the USA and exported to South America. Is there a part number in yours? Sure is a Ford part?

I have US made 34 and a RHD 34 coupe from Argentina. I don't know where the coupe was built. However both cars have the curved fender brackets. I also have another set that I bought on Ebay. They are curved as well. Could it be the difference between 33 and 34?

I have five of the curved brakets. and I have had another four of them. all came from cars purchased new in Sweden. And almost all Swedish cars wher assembled in Denmark. but what iknow they came in parts from the US and whas only asambled in Denmark. No parts whas manufacturered in Denmark, i think?
Could any of them be early 33 or late 34?
Or is it different manufacturers?
Or is it as T Scott suggests, straight is 33, and curved is 34?
