Help me I.D. these wires? (ALT Harness)

I'm going through my harness and I'm having trouble making sense of the wiring around the alternator.
It's from a '70 383 2bbl C500 w/air.
The coil was still attached and those wires are accounted for and labeled, as are my BAT, and Fields for the Alt.
Can anyone I.D. the wires at the top of the pic? From top down:
Pink
White or Grey with Black tracer
Light Blue
Brown with White tracer
White or Grey with Black tracer

You can see my FSM in the pic, it's a little confusing to me. Thanks in advance.

Bottom one looks like a connection for an electronic distributor.

I thought that and there's a matching connector above the bulkhead. I'm running an msd 6al so if that's what the wire is I won't worry about it.
[EDIT: that should be the headlight door motor.]

  :cheers:  thanks for the pictures !!  

i know this might sound a silly question ! has this harness been used on the car ? or was in a pile of parts your putting back together ?

 don't think thats for a second generation !!
 because what confusing is the wire pink &  the  white different looking   mulit plug block connector  on the end ,  ,  thought  all black on second generations ,  seen white & that shape on  E-bodies &  71 & later B & prolly As  also , but i'm no expert  :shruggy:

Well, the motor was out of the car when I got it but all of the wiring was still in the car. That doesn't mean it ever RAN with the wiring that was in the car... a quick search turned up "71 and up ONLY" white connectors. :eyes:
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I might see if the wiring I have is usable with a different connector. This isn't a stock resto. Thanks!  :cheers:
