Need advice

I did the ac mod today and as i was putting the cold air back on i ran across a forgotten problem i had.
on the passenger side head where the wires from the harness plug in to the valve cover gasket.
The wires had been stripped back from the plug by ford to check for the reason my truck died before i found this site.
I know they did it because it was not like that before i had it worked on.

anyway, i think i asked around here about a new plug or harness and forgot about it until today.
So, What i did for now was use some liquid electric tape on the plug and wires. will this be good enough or should i find and solder a new plug in ? The truck runs great..

Any input ?

You will probably be fine, just remember it if or when you start to have issues. Personally I wouldn't worry if it wasn't showing any signs of an issue. But they shouldn't be too hard to find, as Clay has them.
