Default MAP sensor came unplugged - need help

I just installed a set of longtubes on my FRC. I guess when I jacked the engine up the MAP sensor electrical connector disconnected. I can see the male end dangling loose but I don't know where to plug it back in. How do you get to it? Never seen the back of one of these intakes so I'm lost. Please help! Thanks in advance

Nevermind, I got it. Speaking in tongues seems to have helped. Man that thing is in a tight spot! I removed the pass. side coil backs just enough to move them a little then stuck my left hand in there as far as I could. My palm will have a bruise I'm sure then finger f@&%ed it into the plug...just got the head of it in then pushed it the rest of the way with a long screwdriver
