Exclamation Need Help w/Throttle Motor

2002 jaguar x-type 3.0L

Long story, short. Disassembled top of motor to change spark plugs, gaskets and coils. While tearing this apart found that the Throttle Motor connector was missing and wires were just plugged straight into TB. These wires are Red & Green, to fix it I can't replace connector until I buy a whole wiring harness. But my BIG problem is I don't know which wire goes where. If the Red goes on top or Green goes on top. Does anyone have one of these cars they could post a pick of that connector so I can see how I can temp fix this with the wires in correct location? Right now I just have them hooked up to SHOW how they were in the car, I can't verify if it's correct or not and don't want to hurt my car guessing. Pic is attached...

Randallc79 - Helpful tip - Place a small amount of silicon on the backside of the wire, if the light green rubber piece doesn't hold the wire properly.
