Default Where do these go ???

I was looking for a small screw that rolled under the bench.
Started scraping with a stick and found lots of stuff.

These two items must have been under there for ever as
I don't recognize them. They appear to be some sort of
clamp or hold down. Can anyone ID them ???
thanks

Hey! I think one of those must be mine. I lost one and had to pay $15 for one on eBay.

Thanks guys !

Never had any Ford motors but flatheads in the shop.
I won't mention a couple of un-named ones.
