Hi Roger,
Some of the photos are old.
Do you mean the mirror mount? - the mount hasn't changed.
It's a simple mirror mount - it doesn't have a mirror cell
& doesn't need one for an 8".
It's not an Astro Optical primary mount but from Astromomy Alive:

cheers

PS - the mirror mount is NOT like this one:
