Default Where is the Sapphire fuel pump relay?

The ol' YB's been starting quite rough recently, and I've been convinced it's generally lacking 'oomph', so today I changed the dizzy cap, rotor arm and spark plugs - the missus helped and found out how much of a bitch the dizzy cap is to fit! Also had a new fuel pump relay from Ford (£25!!!!!) as it doesn't prime the fuel line from cold, which I'm sure it did once upon a time, and when it's warm, it primes OK. So, took some pics and here they are - you should be able to see why it was a rough starter!!! If anyone has any idea of a) where the fuel pump relay is (my new one is purple and has a clip), and what the spare relay connector might be for, I'd be grateful

The fuel pump relay can be identified as the relay holder with a black/red coming from it as this is the fuel pump relay, sure it is a yellow one from memory.
The "spare" purple is the AIR CON relay holder, not used obviously on yours.
Your dizzy cap did look a bit grotty, should have said as I have a few new spares for mine, as don't use then now, plus new r/arms.
