engine harness

my shell came w/o an engine and harness. i've been looking around in my engine bay and noticed that the wiper motor was unplugged and i cant find the other plug for it. so that leads me to my question. is the wiper "harness" contained within the engine wiring harness? because i've found a guy selling off same year and model engine harness w/ electronics minus the wiper "harness"; he blew his engine and is goin for a V8. so, will i just need to buy this little "harness" separately to basically have a compete harness again?

The wiper motor plugs into the engine harness. If you have an engine harness that the wiper harness has been removed, you will need to run new wires as there is not a replacement (other than another engine harness).

The Harness in the picture is the harness between the wiper switch, cruise control switch and dash harness.

Not sure why, but it seems to be more common for someone to remove the wiper harness from the engine harness on owners that think they are building a race car.

And no replacement write up or diagram that I am aware of, to put it back in.
