Default fuel pump wiring

can anyone tell me which of the fuel pump terminals are which?
i'm assuming the black one is the earth and the yellow one is live. it's just that i am building up a shell and the wiring plugs have been cut off. thanks

TURBO BOI ignore him, we have more sense than that, those extra 2 cable ties will be ruining his power to weight ratio
