Installing a new NOS under hood engine harness for my 87 R10, there are a few different extra wires that the original one did not have, can anyone help with what these are for?

Three wire plug at the fuel pump relay?
Single long orange wire with round plug coming from the rear of the engine harness?
Three wire plug at oil dipstick?
Grey plug with brown and black wires at ac compressor?

The orange round plug could be for a low coolant sensor in the radiator? My 84' was black and yellow with the same connector

The orange wire is too short to get to the radiator.
