85 with an 86 22r

Hey everyone, I bought my 85 4x4 pickup about 3 years ago and one of the previous owners swapped a Buick 3.8 into it. I finally found some time and pulled a 22r w/ a 32/36 weber it of an 86 2wd pickup. I rebuilt the motor and put it in but the problem I'm running into is the engine bay was totally stripped. Could one of y'all with an 85 take a few pics of your engine bay and the connectors? I'm also splicing the remaining wiring harness coming from the cab to the harness from the 86 donor. Does anyone have any final pictures of their egr delete? Thanks for the help! I'll post pics of what I'm working with so for ASAP.

It wasn't a 22r haha
Honestly, It really wasn't a bad motor but the swap was done pretty sloppy.
