Hmmm, you said this was a 2-speed column. Not sure why or how the tab is not there unless it's something else...

The tab was originally formed by stamping out a "C" shape and bending the loose part of the tube out to make the tab. Since yours is torn down I think welding a tab on the tube would work. The hardest part would be placing it correctly, especially the right clock angle. Mine will be partially torn down soon to paint it. I might be able to get you some dimensions.
