Question PLEASE Which Harnass Wire goes to the Oil Pressure Sender ?

I have the stock oil pressure gauge in the instrument cluster. I have the sending unit already in the threaded port of the 13B housing. It has a single wire dangling.

Which harnass wire ( 1981 12A originally ) do I attach to the sender wire to make my stock gauge work in my instrument cluster ?

Put another way, which of the wires from the original harnass ( 1980 12A ) connects to the sender to make it work ? I have a few unused wires (some with voltage on them, others without ), but don't want to play "process of elimination.

I would truly appreciate it if someone would look and identify it for me... like "the second wire branch after the whatever", etc. ( you know, like you would tell your 5 year old

I didn't think the 1980 rotor motors, nor harness, had an oil pressure send...

Oops ! Got fat finger disease... I meant 1981 harnass that USED to go to a 12A. The engine is now a 13B, so I see the sender, but which wire is ( was ) the question.

Thanks.
