Default Doing a Wire Tuck. Needing help!

Ok, I am in the middle of a wire tuck and I have came across some problems. I have some wires that went to nothing. Now I thought this was normal because its a b18a into a crx and there is probably going to be wires that are not needed. So I have taken some pictures in hope that you guys can help me out.

First problem I have having is with my fan, its not hook up. Now I know that it is supposed to be hooked up on the back of the block, but where. I crawled up under the car and took a look at the back of the block and this is pretty much the only spot I could find. Is this where it goes? If not what is that and why isnt it being used? If so do I just hook 1 wire up to one side and another wire up to the other?

Heres the picture of what I am talking about.

Its right next to the oil filter


close up


Now there is abunch more questions that I have but I dont have good pictures to show what I am talking about so I will ask more later. I will just edit this page. Thanks alot guys

yes that is ur fan switch. if u want u could find a thermastat housing from an obd1 LS and us the switch from there, cuz from the looks of it, ur plug isnt gonna hold up to well. just a thought, or replace the sensor.

Ok, so there are no junk yard to get a part like that. Would that plug/ sensor be the same on my 89 Hf or 88 Dx. If so I will just grab that off of them. If not can I order it from like advance or something. What would all that be called that I need.

Ok now I'm confused because my B16 doesn't have that green plug. What does that other switch do?

Well after looking at the wires I see its not the plug I showed you guys. To hook up my fan has to be the thing that has the prongs bent. I wonder if I just connect the wires to it if it will work or not. Since nobody has the answer I guess I have to find out the old fashion way by doing it myself.

Well I have the answer.
The big green plug that is bent is the "engine oil temp switch"
something not used often on obd0 cars...and the one on the top right is the oil pressure sensor, and the dark green one on the top is the fan switch.
