Default Are both black wires on the o2 grounds?

Ok...

I know this is kinda dumb... but I just want to be sure...

are both black wires on the 4 wire ex o2 sensor grounds?

When I tried to find a wiring diagram in the helms it didn't have one with function and wire color... just a pic of the plug and the top marked as heater or sensor wires and the bottom the other... HOWEVER... the way it's pictured BOTH black ones are on the top or the bottom... So it doesn't seem like they'd both be grounds...

Reason for asking is I'm extending my 02 sensor wires and like a moron I didn't mark them before cutting them... So now I'm looking at a BRAND NEW o2 sensor that still may not work...

i think i have the harness side pins but i am 97%sure these are what they are.
green/white -sensor ground
white/shielded - sensor hot
orange/black - heater ground
yellow/black - heater hot

If I Am Wrong PLEASE CORRECT ME!

green - white = green
white = white
the 2 blacks are just a circuit. shouldnt matter.

the two blacks can be connected to either of the other two blacks. the black wire is also by the way the heated portion of the 02 sensor, white is signal, and green is green
