Default rewire help please

hi all i am currently replacing the loom in my 88 spec rst.
while the loom was out i have tidied up the bay and forgot a few important things
there are a few plugs that all have the same fitment as the cold start valve and they are all in the same area.
yellow orange green blue and black are the colour of the plugs that all terminate in the same place in the loom and they are all the same fitment.
hoping that someone with a lot more knowledge than me can point me in the right direction
thanks in advance

ok buddy all the correct places for the plugs should be colour coded so blue to blue ect but here is a breakdown anyhow :

blue is in the middle of the inlet : cold start vlave
Orange/brown is just bellow this : thermo time switch
Green is on the side of the inlet to the right : knock sensor
Yellow is hard to spot as its right under the inlet on the sandwich plate : engine temp coolant sensor

They are not all colour coded, for example the CSV has a blue plug on a grey socket.....
