In the first pic, on the drivers side, that should reach around behind the alternator and bolt to the block I believe. There is a threaded hole next to the driver motor mount. It goes from the block to the inner frame rail right infront of and slightly below the ABS block. The second pic looks correct to me.

Nothing really as there should be a huge ground on the passenger side of the engine that should serve as an engine ground. They put it there for a reason but Im not sure exactly what that was. I have run with this disconnected before with no ill effects.
