Thumbs down driver side wiring harness concern

I'm literally four/five plugs from being done with my swap, but there are a few wires that I cannot figure out where they go or what they used to be. There is a connector coming out of what looks like around the oil pan, but there is no matching connector on the harness. It's the one further rear of the engine. White clip with two red (I think) wires to it. Off the harness there are two wires but no connector, and I know that it goes it it. I just don't know what it is. The car came with shitty oil temp and pressure gauges that I would never trust with my life that I took out.

I have other concerns of my wiring but for now I want to get that one sorted out. I still have my other shell and the wiring so if needed i could probably splice and replace what I need to.

nah i think its kind of a mix up because some stuff is on the same side but the harness comes out the other side ie boost sensor, o2 sensor, etc is on same side but brake master is different . spose it might just be backwards mostly with a few bits and peices different.

most of the connectors in the engine bay are in the same place, but the harness the wires are in, and the routing are different

51: Cruise control CPU

52: Power steering CPU

53: Main relay
