My guess would be that this piece is unique to the 4479s. Carter didn't issue parts sheets on these units, so no easy way to tell.

You have three options:

(A) Look for a junk 4779s to rob parts (this is the first one I have seen in 40 years, they are not real common).

(B) Take the assembled carb with to you to swap meets and look for other WGD carbs (used on several 1950's vehicles) and hope the linkage is the same.

(C) Fabricate the piece. You have a good picture for length. Find a slightly longer piece of linkage the proper diameter from a junk carb; and bend it in the center. The angle of the bend will allow you to adjust the length until you get it right.
