The strap goes to the rear engine stay.

The support of the image is recipe for disaster. The engine moves relative to the fuselage, This causes strain on the muffler through the strap.
The proper way is to fit the strap to the other side...

Whenever possible, use a support strap, so vibrations won't ruin your muffler.
