The pictures aren't exactly clear because the loop is in the way, but the description helps a lot. It sounds an awful lot like an adel-clamp. I was workshopping ideas with my dad about how to secure it and (from my days as a helicopter electrician doing wiring harness repairs) that seemed to be the easiest, make-do solution if there wasn't a specific part for it.I appreciate the help and will let you know how it goes.

I got new sails in from the shop I was keeping it at and they were the ones who took the old sails off, so I don't even have that to go off of. There are four screws in the top of the rod, but they enter the main hollow section and don't pinch the track or seem to serve any function other than something was probably attached to them at some point. I am including a picture.
