Default Where does this connect?

I am kind confused about where this part connects to. The two brown wires shown below connect to the WUR and sup. Air Valve via the black connectors, but the other ends of the brown wires come together into a circular loop connector. It says in the wire diagram that it goes to the fuel pump, but where does it connect? I think it is the wires shown below, I borrowed this pic from BigDave's thread. I hope that's okay, I don't want to jack his thread. Thanks!

Brown wires = Ground. The wiring diagram that you show the snippet of is for 79, and on that diagram the connection to the fuel pump relay is shown as an internal connection, inside the fuse panel. The bottom line in the diagram is always ground.

Borys;

The picture is of a 5.0L engine, your wire diagram is for a CIS car...

I assume the picture is just for reference purposes only and your asking about you 80 Euro...

From what I can gather your asking, the two brown wires that come together are ground wires (which come out of the main harness) that bolt to the back of the timing belt cover where the black plastic meets the aluminum.

Scott's right... they should connect to ground(as I said before). I'll take a look later and see if I can figure out where they connect exactly. Below is the only pic I seem to have that shows them:
