I can't imagine what your looking at. On all Spitfires the only thing
directly below the fuel tank (besides the floor) is the differential. That
access plate is for undoing the nuts securing the spring to the top of the
diff. The handbrake cable fulcrum mounting is directly behind the seats in
front, and above the drive-shaft where it attaches to the diff. (looking up
from underneath the car)
If in fact it has seperated from the body then the only way I know of to fix
it, sorry, is to dissasemble and reweld/replace what's broken-
