Motor mount control line - 
Yep - same for me and my ’84 - Dadventure. 
It is Delrin (Starboard) 
It is there to keep the line from chafing on the rub rail and give  a better lead coming off the turning blocks under the FG housing. 
That Cam cleat is one of those British made ones. 
I have the spec and MFG somewhere and  have purchased them before, but I replace my block with a Harken  Micro cam cleat on a new piece off Delrin taht I bought from McMaster-Carr. 
Have fun 
Ric 
Dadventure
