Wire Idetification Help!

Hey all I'm in the process of trying to clean up my engine bay and have found a mess of wiring cut off, bad insulation etc etc. and I've been trying to Id what everything is and have a few things left and was wondering if anyone had any ideas.
This is located on the drivers side hangs right next to the brake booster and enters the firewall in an opening close to the center of the firewall with what looks like a vacuum line? and enters a taped loom with that vacuum line

Wires from above connector.

This connector is in a loom with wires that heads down under the cab im not sure where its supposed to be as its just been dangling.
Wires from above connector

This connector hangs on the drivers side area above the wheel well area. green with white tracer and black wire I believe
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The 2nd one should be for the BRAKE light on the dash, it should plug into a switch in the brake system differential valve.

Ahh makes sense as the previous owner installed all new lines and a new proportioning valve that has a hydraulic parking brake so no place to plug into. Thanks

Cool thanks I have a similar diagram in some computer manuals I bought off lmc but they don’t show the connectors or pictures so hard for me to tell.
