Default Accelerator pedal

I have a 2WD Cosworth sapphire and I have a problem with the accelerator pedal.
It has a cable like this

But my accelerator pedal is like this.

It looks like the pedal has been removed at some point as a bolt is missing
I cannot get full travel on the pedal

Can someone identify if this is the wrong pedal.

Cheers

Not sure if the link for a pic of the accelerator pedal works but it has a slot in the top which leads down to a small hole.
It has no nopple on at all
