Default 82 wiring question

I installed another intake and one wire broke from somewhere.
The wire is coming out of the firewall just right of the distributor (left side if you look from front of car). Out of this grommet are one vacuum line going to the water heater valve and two electric wires. One black/green is going to the frame on right side (probably ground). The third one is probably going to the left of the car and this one is broken. Can anyone look on your 82 where this wire goes?
Here is a picture. You also can see the transmission filler tube on the left.

This forum is just great!
I looked over my pictures I made some time ago and yes I found the T-connector on one of them. I´ll have a look at it in the car tomorrow morning; I´m sure this was it. Thank you.
