That lead come out of the harness that runs under the intake so that's probably where it is.

Thank -you so much . It is under the upper intake , so I will have to take the upper intake off again to put it in place . I hope I can use the same upper intake gasket or is that a bad idea ?

go ahead and reuse it, just torque it correctly and spray some choke cleaner around it to make sure no vacuum leak.
