Glow plug relay wiring

Hello, everyone I have installed my engine back after a complete reseal. But am now having trouble finding out where the black and orange wire with the boot coming from the glow plug relay goes too. Currently I have it hooked up to the starter relay because from my understanding it is a hot wire so it made sense to put it there so im 95% sure it goes there but wanted to make sure before I try to start it. Thanks

You are correct, it goes to the starter relay on the inner fender. It should be on the lug with the multi wires. the other lug should only have the trigger wire to the starter.
