Please help me identify this wire

Hey guys,
I'm putting the head back on my 88 4Runner with a 22RE (manual transmission), and I cannot seem to figure out where this wire goes.
Can one of you Toyota gurus please help me out?

It looks like 3 orange or brown wires that connect together, it appears to go right under the intake.
It is bundle with a group of other wires that go to the oil pressure sensor and aux air valve, etc.

Here is a link to a picture of the wire:

Thanks!

Looks like the ground wire that goes to a bolt between the upper and lower manifold, usually towards the front of the engine.

I thought it might be a ground, but it didn't have any resistance back to ground.

I'll check the resistance again when I turn the key.

It's a 'component' ground so won't have continuity to ground- it grounds components like the injectors, TPS, etc.
