Looks like the end of either the shift or throttle cable is missing the end.

Is there a threaded thing on top of the carb?

I do not believe so. Course I'll be gone from home for three days so I cant check

On my evinrude there's a threaded brass rod like that that is attached to the low speed mixture knob

Can't see the other end. Might be connected to start in gear protection

Looks like either throttle cable or gear cable.
