Engine/Charge Harness Wiring, Fuse Box

So I remade my crusty engine/charging harness a few months ago and haven't been able to re-install it in the car until now and of course some wire labels went missing so I'm looking for some info on the wiring. Specifically the wires going in/out of the X-01 fuse box. I know the 2 posts on the unfused side go direct to the starter and one of the fused side goes to the X-02 box. But I've got a mystery wire from the fused side that I can't seem to remember where it goes. From searching it seems that the alternator should be going here but this wire is only ~18" long...?

Hopefully these pics are clear enough.

And just checking these ground points are correct? Obviously need to remove some of the PC from the fender point.

Also if anyone knows of somewhere to get a dual hole terminal for the starter wire that would be awesome. Can't seem to find any. I realize they're tied together on the box but would be nice to replicate the factory setup.

I thought I responded to this when you first posted, I think the post got lost.

The ground wire goes from the negative terminal to the bracket on the shock tower then to the bracket on the engine. That one is simple.

I think the two-wire connection goes to the starter. The other 2 connections to the positive fuse block, one goes to the second fuse block and bolts in (you have it in your pictures there) and one goes to the main alternator terminal.

Thanks for confirming Dale. That's what I thought but I still have a 4th wire. Now I'm wondering if it was an additional ground wire the previous owner installed or something.

That powder coating you did looks nice but it will isolate that ground. You will need to figure out a work around for that. Ask me how I know..
