WIRE COMING OFF OF MY EGR VALVE 1991 Z28 305 TPI

Iv tried looking at some other posts but still need some help here please. I have a 1991 z28 305 TPI with a 5 speed. There is that black wire coming off of my EGR valve...I think it's the EGR temp sensor?? I cannot for the life of me find out where the black wire connects to in the harness. I had the motor out last fall to paint the engine/engine bay and its the only wire that doesn't have a home. I thought I read 91-92 camaros don't use this wire but why is it there then????

The egr body is the same 90-92 but earlier 85-89 have a provision for the egr temp sensor. It's not used in 90/92 tpi applications.

So the wire is just left there? No connection needed for my car? Can I remove the wire all together?

I have a '91. No wire. Maybe someone bought the wrong one at one time??

Must have I suppose. I'll just discard the wire then. Thanks for saving me time looking for something that isn't there haha
