Where does this connector for the guage sender go?

I need to know where this goes SPECIFICALLY. I have looked and cannot find its connection. It's just hanging there. I also need to know where the temp sensor for the computer is. Thanks guys I'm just really frustrated my Camaro is running rich cause the ECM thinks the engine is cold.

that connector is for the gauge and goes in the drivers side head between #1 and #3 cylinder. The ect is in the front of the intake manifold.

There is no place in the head between the number 1 and number 3 spark plugs for me to plug the connector in. Not that I can see. Between the spark plugs 1 and 3 all I see is a brass plug looking thing that looks the same as the cooling fan switch on the other side of the engine.

I have never seen the cooling fan switch used on tpi just tbi and ccc, unless someone has swapped the heads or done a tbi to tpi conversion.
