AM 2319-481 - an Arp peculiar galaxy with(out) a jet

This is AM 2319-481 (PGC71205) in the constellation of Grus. It is interesting from the point of view that it has a jet which i have not been able to resolve. I reckon it would be a challenge for any amateur for that matter. However, I have included an image from Arp and Madore "A Catalogue of Southern Peculiar Galaxies and associations" so you can see it in more detail. I believe this image is from the UK 48inch Schmidt and is freely available to use but please advise if I am wrong.
Arp and Madore classify it as Category 7a which is a sub-category which has an elliptical central galaxy with fairly broad or diffuse jet emerging from it. There is not much information out there about this galaxy so i can't add much more other than what is described in the catalogue. However, jets from galaxies are indicative of a super-massive black hole. While jets from galaxies are not clearly understood, it is thought that they result when the magnetic field of the black hole in the centre of the galaxy interacts with the magnetic field of the surrounding accretion disk. I don't think that the elliptical galaxy in the lower left is interacting with PGC71205 in any way.
I need a bigger telescope....

Description: A re-process of the original. When i zoom in, I see a very faint line below the smaller galaxy on the left of PGC71205. Could it be?

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
