Add section arrow to 3/4 section view cut line

I am working on the drawing shown in the attached jpg file.  I've added an isometric 3/4 section view for additional clarity.  The problem is, without the view shown to the left of the title block (which wouldn't really add value to the drawing), the isometric view is somewhat ambiguous with regard to the positioning of the section cut lines. 

 

The section cut lines (sketch 5) are shown in green in the plan view, but because of the nature of the 3/4 section view, there is only one section arrow "D",  which makes sense when you have the actual section view to look at.  But, since I want that view omitted from drawing in favor of the isometric 3/4 section, it would be helpful to have a second "Arrow D" on the horizontal sketch line.

 

Right clicking the section line only gives the option to edit the second arrow style, which is the one on the vertical line.

 

Is there a better way to create this isometric view, or if not, an easy way to add an arrow/label to the horizontal cut line?

Add leader text + text. Dirty but it works for a one-off application. See attached sample (technically made wrong but just as illustration).

Yeah, I figured this would probably be the solution.  Thanks!
