T-shaped electrical connection

Ok got a pos runner last weekend blown head gasket (imagine) Got everything done including a new head. No reason for a new head but buddy didnt need it anymore so I gave him 50 bucks and a case of beer.
The last couple of connections are killing me. First is the intake manifold vaccum connections. The one in the front, a bigger one. where does this come/go to.
Then the one under the TPS. It pissed out coolant yesterday when first trying to start.
Then the T shaped electrical connection. Its wires are white with red stripe and I think an all white wire.
I took pictures but the camera hates me, so retaking them with my phone.

O.k. got a coke and donut from 7-11 and came back to it. Got the vaccum lines figured out in 5 minutes. Just that damn electrical connection is killing me. I looked on my other 4runner, but the connection is just chillin on the intake. so no good on that.

That electrical connection could just be one of those random useless plugs for accessories that didnt come on your truck. AFAIK, Toyota used the same wiring harness with all the connections/plugs/wires/etc for all the same vehicles, regardless of options.

haha, yeah I guess one could say that no toyota is a pos. this is my 3rd one. I have had a 85, 86- current, 87- current.
The only thing is that I did take this off, and its the only T connection in the engine bay. Not sure if it goes above or below the intake. I am seriously not sure.
But the engine is getting coolant in the oil again.
