Default alt pigtail connector issue

so i replaced the alt on my 2000 z b4c with a 180 amp alt, in the middle of installation i noticed the one wire pigtail was totally shredded and when i tried to move it the connector fell right off so i was wondering if anyone knew where i could get a replacement connector or if there is another way to make it work?

People have had luck finding them at the auto parts stores....but if you can't these are very good quality, lots of people use them.
