What I did was just rip the old bracket and stuff off mine with pliers then use large hose clamps to clamp the filter onto a piece of metal. I just ran a self tapping screw through a solid looking piece to hold it solid. Zip ties would probably work just as good and be easier to remove next time you change the filter. Just be really careful with the gas lines and try not to bend them much. They are probably really rusted and would be easy to break if you get carried away bending them around.
