I need a wiring diagram for the fuel pump and sending unit (in-tank area). Replacing pump and several wires broke off. Adding images of wires straight through, (minus connectors in between). Will be soldering wires back on. In-tank and external side pump and sending unit diagram.

See if this gets you to where you want to be. Let me know if there's other parts of a diagram you need.

Are these the actual sending unit and fuel pump wires inside the gas tank? I believe this is the exterior unit connections.

The wires and hoses on the pump assembly are considered part of that assembly. As such, no one publishes a wiring diagram that includes wire colors. You have to go by the locations in the connector, and the symbols used for the pump and sending unit.

Can you see where the yellow wire, for example, continues on inside the tank? If not, because that connector is hidden, you can perform continuity tests to find which wire inside corresponds to one on the outside. If that doesn't help, try to post a photo showing the broken wires.

Yes, thanks. Understand what you mean. I was just hoping it was printed somewhere outright.
