Hi all, I'm trying to sort out some wiring issues and need some help with the colors. There is a group of wires that I think used to be hooked up to the rotary battery switch. They are yellow with a blue stripe. Can anyone confirm these are suppose to be hooked up to positive battery?

On the other side of the engine bay there is a group of dark green wires with a black stripe that I think used to be hooked up to the engine block. These are suppose to go to ground?

If so why is the heavy wire that goes to the alternator output dark green with a black stripe?

Confused.
