New mk3 trying to learn a bit - Page 2

Thank you. I started my tear down. I'm cleaning thing up a bit and trying to see what I see that needs work. I ordered my oil pump but it won't be here till Wednesday. I'm checking all lines and seals. There is an oil leak. But I can't tell where its coming from. It literally sprayed my radiator when I had the car running yesterday. I was trying to see if there were any other things I could notice. I went and got some purple power so that I can clean it up a bit and it'll be easier for me to find. Anything else I should check while im at it?

Okay so I found a few wires that have no ends and one wire tucks back in. My head lights are permanently on. My power in the car is run through a switch next to the ignition. It originally had a clutch fan but my fan are also ran from that switch. That explains the loose wires. Is there a diagram that shows me which wires are which? I intend to solder the wires and do a shrink wrap. Any suggestions or other ideas of how to do it right without replacing all wires?
