Default Help on buttoning up my engine?

Hi there im buttoning up my swap and would love some help... i didnt take enough pictures i guess and forgot where a few things went. The 2 brackets are off the intake just not sure where exactly. The silver c looking bracket im not sure as i wasnt the one that took that off. The ground strap i believe goes to the fuel rail.... again just not sure where. Any help would be much appreciated.
2005 ls2 auto. Engine pulled due to damaged crank.

The c looking piece goes to the power steering pump.

I did a cam and clutch swap on an Ls1 several years ago. This strap looks like the one that was holding back/supporting the stiff wire bundle that runs down past the bell housing and into the torque tube and back to the transmission. Maybe this is what that is?
