Finishing Up T5 Swap

I'm pretty close to being done with this 700r4 to t5 swap, but a couple things got me stumped, one is, theres a rubber hose coming from the clutch pedal assembly and when I goto hook up the linkage to the tranny fluid comes out of the hose, I'm not sure where I'm suposed to connect that. And also there are 2 spots for connecters to go into on the driver side of the tranny, and i havnt been able to locate the wires that hook up to them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i just picked up the swap parts myself, sorry those are needed :P
should be easy to find though, ive found that v8 5spd cars are hard to find in the junkyards, but damn v6 camaro 5 spds are lying dead alllll over the place
that peice might even be something you can pickup at the auto parts store, not sure
