Not sure about the Avon - if it uses a Ford type clutch cable then following might be useful: on RH 2B's the recommended is a Cosworth cable, is long enough that it reaches around the front of the headers before going down, under and back to the clutch - cable is the best part of 5ft long!

Standard Sierra Pinto one.

Mine went under the headers and was held down by a small bracket from one of the bolts from the bell housing.

Loking at your photo archive. it looks like you have fitted the Sierra pedal box, so therefore, as Pat says, you would need a Sierra clutch cable.
However, if you ditched it and fitted floor mounted pedals, then you would need a clutch cable from say a Capri or Cortina as they had a nipple for the bellhousing end and an eye to attach to your clutch pedal.
