Depending on your talent you could purchase an empty connector and maybe transfer the wire and terminal as an assembly OR you can buy the connector assembled and cut/splice.
I don't recognize the tan/green/black wires, what year car and what component did the connector go to?

It's not as bad as it looks. Get all of the green plastic off of each of the wires. Normally you'd use something pointy to release the latch in the end but yours is pretty broken up. Get a new plug and feed the wires through on the same order. Push each one until it clicks then tug on them to make sure they locked.
Done.
Done.

Looks like maybe a MAP sensor connector. Are the wires black, green & gray?
Here's a pig-tail or the connector only:

Post a snapshot of the part with year - etc! Turn the connector over and you should see A - B - C and ID the wire colors.

also if your pins are still intact, you can get a small tool to remove them with out breaking them. then put into a new housing.
this will save splicing if you want to keep original and look better
local NAPA here, carries some of these connections under the trade name weather pack. if yours does, they will likely have the housing. new pins and the tool to change them

Big THANKS
Thanks guys for your help, NAPA has the pig tail in stock on my way to get it. Then I'll wire it in, and finish cleaning the throttlebody, and install that back.

Using your old connector for experimentation with a "heavy straight pin" attempt to release the terminal from your old connectors first. If you're successful then just release them from your new and use your terminals and wires eliminating the cut/splice.

Another satisfied customer of Corvette Forum!
Glad you found what you needed.
Soldering and heat shrinking is definitely the way to go!

For sure but I'll have to do it over again thou as I did not take into consideration the length of the pig tails wires. Lets just say their a few inches longer then need to be oops.
I'll redo them Sunday on my day off n then post pics of the job done right.
