Default 1996 Honda civic engine wire harness unknown connectors

So I got a 96 sedan civic with no engine,
I put the engine in, and the engine harness has 2 large connectors and I do not know what they go to. One is a large gray one am one a large blue on. They are a squat shape. Does anyone know it they plug into anything?
They are close to the oil pressure sensor on the harnes. Thank in advance

they do not go anywhere. there should be a cap over them with a bridge on it.

Yep. The service manual refers to them as junction connectors.

Ok I was thinking that too because I didn't see any connections down there that large.
Thanks for that guys!
I think I have 2 extra connectors where I also can't find a connection to them. But idk the exact location. Will post back up in a while with their location.

Here I have the pictures and they're locations
These are 2 connectors that are on the harness, they sit above the transmission and are close to the coolant temp sensor on the harnes. I can find anything in this area where they would plug in to...?


And here's another plug that is coming from where all the intake manifold connections are. Also I cannot find any connection that it might plug into
I am thinking it's for the air filter? But I don't have an air filter box so I'm not sure


And this isn't a connection. Just a hose, does the cruise control unit have a breather hose?

(The hose on the power steering fluid reservoir)

Well now that I'm asking these questions
I am either missing and engineering piece or have the wrong one
This is what I curectnly have
The engine post mount and the body mount
Is there a peice that connects these two? I couldn't find anything online

Oh I believe one of the sensors near the transmission is for the o2. Sensor right?

Ahh so both of those go to o2 sensors. Not just one
And that was a vent hose on the cruise control
Thanks for all that info man. I'll have to go out and find that piece that connects the 2 mounts together.

Another question.
I got the air filter box assembly. I put it on the TB but the shape of it is do awkward that the box sits too high and the hood doesn't close. Am I just placing the box wrong?
Or am I missing a peice. ?

Does anyone know if this is the stock air filter assembly?
I put it on but it sits too high and the sensor is on te opposite side
But idk if its the right or wrong one




Also does anyone know if this price goes on the engine somewhere?

The air box sits straight down on top of the tb and that long hose coming off is like a cool air inlet, it has a resonator that hooks to the pieces coming off the side of it, but if you don't have it it should be ok

the second piece goes between your engine and transmission. it is a brace and doubles as a flywheel cover.

the bottom of your airbox goes on the throttle body.

Cool. Thanks for te info guys and that diagram link.
Got the flywheel cover brace on,
And the intake sat too high because the bottom price that clipped on was on backwards
Looked inside the fuel tank to see if I needed to clean it, looked nice and clean and the old gas wasn't dirty. Still going to drain it and flush the fuel lines. Hopefully it'll run tomorrow!
Thanks for the help guys.
