Default motor swap issues

so im doing a swap for my friend in his 2000 civic.
he called Steve at HMO. and got a motor.
Steve sent a SOHC ZC. but im pretty sure he sent him a obd1
and i have two clips that dont have a home. on the old motor there was a wire thing coming from the crank that isnt on the ZC.
and theres a Little black box that's plugged into the intake manifold. that has a clip that goes into that's not on the new one.

also someone told me that 2000 civic have demobilizes and if you do a swap you gotta do something to reset the ecu... i dont know cause im an EF person myself so all this new **** is kinda out of my league

help is greatly appreciated

The wires coming near the crank is the crank fluctuation sensor. Which means the ZC is OBD1. The 2000 Civic does not have an immobilizer.

The car should start.
I believe the imolbilizer came in the em1.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

2000 civic is obd2 so you are going to need a obd1 to obd2 coversion harness, which I would make HMO pay for since they sent you the wrong engine. Because it would suck to have to pull that bitch back out.

If you show me a obd2 version of a sohc zc (factory) I will send you $20 paypal right now. Hmotors owes him nothing. He ordered a motor, they delivered it. If you guys knew what you were doing, you would have ordered a d16y8.

i didnt ordered, my friend did and he called steve and told him he needed a cheap motor to replace his and told him what kinda car he had,
i have no problem with steve at hmo. i order all kinds of **** from him, and hes probably the only person i would order from.
apperantly jdm obd2 zcs didnt come with a crank sensor, so i had to change the oil pump.
and its not like a shop is going to just have a d16y8 laying around, and if they did its not worth selling cause those motors
