Default Efi conversion wiring. The 7 wires!

Im now well into my efi conversion and i have gutted the mfi loom, rebound the loom back up with the 7 wires ready to be terminated to my loom plug . I have some wiring diagrams but none that identify each wire by colour . Can anyone help me out? i know i could work it out but i dont want to start ripping stuff about to locate each wire correctly .

Don't see your problem here

If you look at the diagram the plug is drawn with all the wires in the plug in order, how can that possibly be any easier

well i want to be shure that i connect each wire up correctly i.e which colour to which pin. I actually have 8 wires
1. brown/green
2. green/red
3. green
4. black/red
5. black/green
6/7. black x2
8. 1 larger black wire
As stated i could figure it out but if someone already knows it could save me some working out.

I wanna know what wire does what. for example the brown/green wire is the oil pressure switch. you follow? you might think im being lazy but iv bound up my loom before i had the diagram so i dont wanna unbind it to trace each wire , I wanna identify them buy coulour first. By the way i have not yet got the loom connector but i was gonna use one from a spare injector rail loom as i think its the same. Can you verify?
