Default Starter wire connections

Does anyone have a diagram of which wires connect to which terminals on the starter? I forgot to document that when I pulled the motor

It's pretty straight forward.

Small one on the small post.

Big one on the big post

There is also a ground wire that goes to the block.

With my C5, I have five wires and three posts( one small and two large ). One of the wires is obvious that it goes to the small post. The other four I have no idea.

Default Starter wire connections

I guess you have managed to sort out.
Seems that the lower large 8mm terminal post has Battery positive with 3 positive feeds out to harness.
The upper large 8mm terminal post is earthed to engine block and the small 5mm terminal post is purple starter solenoid wire.
Confirmation would be appreciated from anyone please.
Thanks Trevor
