Thumbs up Wiring for Alternator and Voltage Regulator 78 Ford F- 250

Wondering if anybody out their knows the correct color coding for the 3 wires hooked up at the alternator are Black with Red Stripe goes to the Starter Relay Big question is the orange wire from the voltage regulator to the back of the alternator connection FLD . Have White wire with black stripe going back thru the wiring harness into the truck cab it is connected to STA on the back of the alternator. Have a wiring diagram off the internet from Auto Zone seems it does not have all details quite right. On the voltage regulator on on I TER. have Red/ Green. Orange on TER. F Two yellow wires on TER.A nothing on TER.I. the Red and Green and 2 Yellows are Showing 12 Volts DC on the meter. Getting ready to put a new alterenator on 60 amp. Want to make sure this wiring is right any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Keith
