Starter cable questions

Well, I'm finishing up my battery relocation and I can't figure out where the negative ground bolts on to. I took it off, but for some reason can't remember where it bolts to on the starter. I know that the postive cable bolts onto the left stud at the back of the starter and then will route to the breaker that I've run from the battery, so that's not a problem. The negative cable is supposed to come from the starter to the grounding point on the driver's strut tower below the brake line. Also, wire I was re-wiring it made a new wire from the fuse panel to the breaker out of some of my leftover termnials and 2 gauge wiring instead of trying to cut and re-use the stock wire. I've also made sure to clean my connections with a wire brush, brake parts cleaner, and sealed with dieletric grease. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

the neg cable should have an O ring style connector, mine is attached to the top starter bolt, the one that holds the starter to the block, its attached on the front side near the oil sending unit..
I only found this out because it almost caught on fire, the guy that did my clutch and starter left it wedged between the oil sending unit and the block, good thing I caught that in time...
