Default 2007 Corvette Oil temp sensor

So long story short I have an LS2 Corvette that now has an LS7 in it. At some point the oil temperature sensor connector was removed and now I cant find the wires. I have an sensor in the bottom of the dry sump I just need to find the factory wires to tap into. Can anyone tell me were I can find the wires in the harness? Im told they are green/white and tan.

The wires should be near the connector for the low oil sensor at the side of the oil pan. They were most likely cut there. This is assuming you are still using the 07 non Z06 engine wire harness.

The oil temperature was read at the same location as the oil level.

Yeah its there someplace.... I think hidden above the turbo. If I could grab it someplace else that would make things easy.

The two wires connect to the gauge cluster. If you pull out the cluster you can access them there.

Black plug. Connector pin #7 (tan, low reference) and connector pin #16 (D-green/white, sensor signal).

Connector pin #15 isn't used. Connector pins #6 and 8 are also not used. This will help you identify the number orientation of the black connector.

Also connector pins #3 and #4 aren't used.
