Exhaust Bracket Question

Exhaust fell away from manifold last weekend when off roading. On examination, the bracket that connects to the engine (near the sump) was MIA. I have reconnected at manifold but cannot get anywhere near the connection point at bottom of engine (where exhaust starts its journey to back of car) see pic

I have tried connecting at bottom first but cannot get anywhere near the movement required. Am I missing a bracket ? The bolt and anything else that should be there...well was not. Views appreciated Should say car is 90 200tdi 1991

Did it hit the ground / any other moving object when it cme off that may have bent the down pipe?

Picture is a little bit too close in, but I cant see any mounting there - the exaust will not bolt directly to the body as this will cause damage the moment the engine moves on its mountings!

OK, good stuff. Yes hit the ground so did suspect I had lost something (mounting). I did suspect the exhaust should want some movement. The pic was a bitch to get, no space there. I will have a look at a similar 200tdi and see whats there, cheers
