According to the green book for 1985 new car features they mention the clutch adjustment was changed to negative play of 3 mm, measured at the clutch fork. They want the throwout bearing contacting the clutch fingers and use the pressure plate springs to hold up the clutch pedal. I'm not sure about the chunk of iron - my '85 did not have it, but my '90 & '91s do. I suspect it is for vibration dampening.
