Paul,

The cable should be held in by a 7/16 bolt.
 
If yoy follow the cable from the arm of the accelerator pedal you'll find it.  Be sure to use a new seal or some sealant (I like butyl rubber) to make sure you keep the heat out.
 
As always, It's easier to get out than to put back in.
 
Good luck,
Anthony
