This isn't much of a photograph, but here it was yesterday morning:



It went together in a pretty straight forward fashion, except one thing and I need the input of anyone who can assist:

I have one wire terminal which I would like to POSITIVELY identify. I have it labeled as if it came from the Alternator, but you know how when you lay a previously installed wiring bundle in place things just kind of flop out near where they go?

Well this one flops over by my starter motor. A single red wire with a round terminal to either a starter or alternator would not normally cause me any pause at all. But the possibility that it could be either is now a problem. This is a MUCH easier place to reach with the engine on the ground than it is once it is installed.

There another branch of the wiring harness which has a connector on the back of the alternator, and this loose wire is approximately the same length and with careful routing I could connect it to the large terminal on the alternator.

This next lousy photo shows the terminal.
