Question One green wire left by the MAF Whats it for ? Shoebox ?

I'm almost done hooking up all the wires that were unhooked from the car when i bought it. Im down to one wire. Under the hood, there is a bundle of wires coming towards the front of the car along the driver side valve cover. As this bundle gets up by the ICU and MAF sensor , it splits. The coil wires/plugs, the MAF plugs, and 2 grounds come out of this main bundle ( Its about a 1" thick black plastic bundle. Where the MAF, Coil wires, and grounds come out of the main 1" bundle, there is also a smaller black wire cover that comes off. Its about 3/8" in diameter. In this wire cover is a green or teal colored wire, that the end of it is appently dyked off. What does this go to ? I need to no asap. This is the only wire i have left on the car before Im gonna try starting it. Anyone know what this is too ? Could someone maybe go into the garage pop the hood and follow it to where it goes and lemme no ? Thanks ... Also , the car is a 95 Z28 Vert, M6

Also , the little 3/8" black wire cover with the green wire in it is about 2 feet long if that helps...

Betcha it goes to the temp sensor for the gauge. It is supposed to have a double cavity plug on it, but only one side of it is used ("A"). It's a dark green wire.

Since i got the plug outta the garage, it has A and B labeled on it, but its not from a F-body so incase it is switched from the way a F-Body is labeled , which side of the plug is the wire in? Like base whether it is left or right as if you were looking at the plug head on with the clippy part that holds it in place on the top. Thanks ... If thats undoable for you now then ill go with the one you sed to use in the first place

Looking at the plug (the part with the wire on it ) and the clip on top, the wire should be on the left.
