Default ground strap help!!!!

I pulled a bonehead...... I am lucky enough to have access to a friends shop to put in my new motor.

As luck would have it, I had a couple of friends help me drop my front end to set in the new motor. Though the said "all clear",,, I found the braided ground strap om the floor. It was hooked on the sub frame when I raised the lift and no one noticed...

I cannot find where it was torn from. (was torn on an angle and was a straight tear) To say this is pissing me off is an understatement. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks in advance!

if its on the driver side its just below the motor mount on the block I believe. There shoudl be a wire and a braided line there.
