Couple more wiring questions

On the tranny bell housing, right behind the upper intake manifold, there is an o-ring type connector that has a black insulated wire running off of it. Where does this go?

On the front wire harness (not the engine harness), down in the area where the strater, oil pressure sender, steering arm is (not really sure where it ends up, so I listed all those), there are 2 yellow wires with red stripes. Both have a white spade type connector on them. One ends at that connector, the other has something connected to it that leads to another oring type connector that needs to be bolted to the chassis or motor somewhere. Can someone tell me what that connector connects to and where the o-ring goes.

If anyone has a wiring diagram or can run out to their car and check these out it would be great.

Its an 89 TII

Thanks

I believe the black wire from the back of the engine runs to the firewall (ground) connection just to the right of the wiper motor.
Don't know about the others, sorry.

Ok, the yellow connector with a red stripe, is the oil pressure sender (the spade) and the piece that looks like it has a hole in it is a ground to the chassis (for the oil pressure sender) It should ground to a bolt under the intake manifold, but any bolt will do.

The other connector, sounds like the ground, if it comes OFF of the tranny (10mm bolt), and it grounds to the chassis (passenger side, the stud taht holds the brake booster vacuum hardline on my NA, but again, any stud on the chassis will do.
