Wiring and more engine stuff

Ok, as promised I finally got the chance to take some pictures to help aid my discussion of the wiring and grounds in my car.

Here are some pictures of the inside of the engine bay.
Maybe this can clear some of my questions up.
In the one picture, there is a wire just sitting there on the driver side of the engine. I have no idea where this goes, or if it is supposed to go somewhere in the first place. Under it is that weird cylinder thing that I thought it may go to.

Also, maybe after some help, I will be able to get it started... I cant wait!
haha!
Anyways, any ideas?

Hmmm. No one?
Well...
Alright then. I have searched many moons, forums, manuals, and more to find this wire. No idea what it is. (the first pic shows it. The rest of the pictures are just random wires that just end out of no where, and then there is an engine pic, cus it looks sexy)

haha. Well, I have devoted all of tomorrow to fix the car, so maybe ill figure it out. Thanks to all who at least helped in the begining!

Hey man...help is coming...hold the phone. Well, I think that first pic shows the wire/plug for oil temp sensor mounted in your oil pan (some warmer climate cars don't have this. Could also be your oil level sensor, but I recall that having a different plug. Search "pictures sensors reference" in this section with my name - I think I took pictures of this.

I didn't notice what wiring you're talking about in the second two pics. Please clarify. The last pic. prominently shows the leading coil with the one wire (black?)sometimes used (round connector) for the timing light, and the two green plugs (six pin for ecu codes, two pin I don't recall, but I think that's the famous jumper connector for testing idle, timing, etc. to bring computer to base mode). Keep us posted.

What do you think?
