Engine Wiring

So I replaced the heads on my truck and finally got everything back together but now I have a little problem.I have one wire left over from the main harness and I can't figure out where it goes its a whiteish wire with a rubber end on it looks like it should go in some kinda little post I really dont know what to say or how without sounding stupid but my oil pressure gauge dosent seem to work either but I know it is gettin oil. any suggestions.
Thanks

It plugs on the oil pressure switch.

If you are talking about your 5.0L then NO, that is the Knock sensor.
The Oil pressure switch is down by the oil filter (just in front).
