Brake pedal pushrod pin

Yes, how is this pin secured?
It seems you can buy a kind of plate with a hole in it,kind of securrity plate you must bend.
Here in Europe I can't find this little plate.
Furthermore I don't understand how this plate is mounted and how it works.What a weird construction.Why not a simple pin with a hole in it ?
I found one picture here on the samba of it but wasn't really clear...
Perhaps I can make the little plate myself but ofg coursr it's an important item,if the pin falls out you're out of brakes...
Again for such an important thing it's a weird construction...

Great, thanks a lot this explains everything.
I'll try to fabricate the piece which shouldn't be too hard i guess.

That is called a "Tab washer", Amazon or a hardware store will have them.
