Default 99 with fuel issues

Hello Everyone: I am new to the site so if I make a mistake please bear with me.

I have a 99 corvette which sat up for a while under an open car port, I attempted to start it one day and nothing,, fuel pump would not come on.. I replaced fuel pump, traced down some corroded grounds, now pump will come on but with low voltage, after some more checking I found that under the fuel door, beside the gas cap is a "plug" with 2 gray and 1 dark green wire that has been chewed .. I have the "plug" end but the other end has fallen somewhere behind the fuel tank. I am thinking this is my problem (duh) but I don't know what this wiring goes to. I have searched the internet with no luck.. can anyone tell me what this "plug" goes to on the other end behind the firewall and fuel tank..

Welcome. I’d recommend posting your question over in the C5 Tech and/or General sections. I’m sure someone there can help. Good luck!
