Help identifying engine components

Hi

Trying to understand the wiring on an '86 3.2 engine. There is one part of the loom that connects to the starter, the alternator and a few sensors - but I am not sure what the sensors are.

Starts with this connector:


From what I can tell so far:

Blue = Wire from alarm to alternator
Yellow = Wire from ignition (start) to starter motor
Green / White Stripe = Oil Pressure Switch to Oil Pressure Light
Red (one of them) = Alternator to "Power distribution system"


I think the extra wire you can see to the left was where someone tapped in to this to take an additional power feed

The two sensors are, i believe:

Oil Pressure Switch (wired to the oil pressure warning light with Green/White wire (bad photo I think))


Oil temperature switch (is this wired to a warning light - or does this control the cooler fan along with the switch in the cooler itself?)



Can anyone help me identify these?
