Apologies for the delay. These are what you mount the headlights to on an AE.
They go on top of the front wing, bolt through onto the wing stay beneath. Think these are off an RK, but they are identical as far as I can tell AE RK RF RL. I robbed the ones off my late fathers AE for my RL (along with the wing stays), then manufactured some for the AE when I chucked it together.
As noted it is important that you use the lower two, of the three bolt holes. Or your headlights will be too high. A common problem, I guess also on built up cars where none of the holes are there for the builder to use.

I will happily draw round them for you so you can get them profiled, you then just need a stout bench and vice with perhaps some heat to kink into shape. As to the kink, they are nest adjusted by fitting on the car with the lamp and weighing the job up. A vice and a large shifter is all that is needed.
