I think I can help you with a few of these, #2 is your EST connector which you disconnect for when you set base timing and used by the computer to control timing I believe, 3B looks like the plugs for your AIR diverter and maybe the connector that would go into the front of the AC compressor and #4 looks like the plug for your charcoal cannister. I'm going to assume your AIR emissions stuff is deleted along with the air conditioning which you mentioned.

I have the same year, here's what I found:
This looks like 1, goes to ac stuff:
For 3, the AIR smog pumpalator stuff is by my pinkie finger, my thumb and forefinger are holding the ac connector that goes on top, and my middle finger is pointing to the rear ac connection:

I looked but didn't find anything useful. Maybe take some new pics that kinda show where they're going from / to and we can take another look? My driver's side firewall area is super oem looking but down by the battery and fans is sort of a rat's nest.

Nr. 1: A/C, plugs to the switch at the accumulator.
Nr. 2: This SHOULD be unplugged, IIRC this is the fuel pump test port (someone correct me if I am wrong).
Nr. 3A: Connector for the high pressure cutoff switch at the A/C compressor
Nr. 3B/3Ba/3Bb: Green and white connector are for the air pump diverter valve, seems that someone has removed it along with your A/C. The black plug is the connector for the A/C compressor clutch.
Nr. 4: Connector for the charcoal cannister.
Nr. 5: It looks like the connector for the temp gauge for the gage cluster, but the wire should be dark green for 89 and not light blue... oil pressure sender wire color should be tan. Maybe the wire was repaired somewhere in the wiring harness and it was dark green before? The pic is very blurry, maybe you can post a better pic of this thing.
Nr. 6: Looks like the connector for one of the original coolant fans.
