87 305 TPI wires cut what are they??

Ok iv got a complete wiring harness there are some wires that are cut, i know most of them are grounds that go to the back of the block but here goes, if you have an 87 wiring harness for TPI sitting on your ground uncut it would be much easier to help me.....There is a Brown wire that is cut that comes out of the same spot of the wiring whip as the oil sender and the sensor that is on the coil bracket and all the driver side injector plugs come out of the same spot and the distributor plug as well. the other wires com out of the same place as the pass. side injector plugs, upper plenum plug(MAT sensor?), and EGR plug with 1 other misc. plug that i realized goes to like nothing. any ideas? there is a peachish wire that is cut and the other ones are black which im told are just grounds to the back of the heads....help will be greatly appreciated, also if anyone has the wiring harness off of the computer whip that goes in side the car to the fuse box, the big whip has the ALDL plug on it and then wires go past that to the fuse box, there is a green wire and a black wire that i cant figure out. any help? (the car i bought the parts off of had A/C if that has anything to do with it) thanks!

Your best bet would be to post pictures. Is the air pump still hooked up?

Is the engine at a point where you can connect the harness to it. That would be a good place to get started. I have some pictures of my old TPI setup lying around I can post that you might be able to compate to.

that would be cool if you could put up pics of the old TPI setup, most of the wires are back by the distributor.
