4r100 problems

03 f350. 7.3 auto 4x4- removed rebuilt trans because it failed( see my posts from last fall and xmass time)
when removing elec connector to solenoid bank ( external) the lock clip broke- does anyone know what part number that is, so I can replace the harness end? Is it a Deutz connector?
also can the 4r100 take mercon LV fluid or just mercon V ?
more on what happened to trans later.

MERCON LV will destroy a 4R100 in a very short time. Use MERCON V.
