Default CPS or MAF connector?

So there are two connectors on my L92 Truck harness. They both can plug into either the Mass Air Flow Sensor or into the Crank Position Sensor.

How Can I tell which is which?

For a truck harness the CMP and MAF connectors should not be the same. Trucks use a 5 wire MAF where Fbodys used a 3 wire that used the same body as the CMP, the CAM also fits. MAP uses a similar connector of the same series but the alignment tab doesnt fit anything but MAP sensors

MAF is PNK, BLK, YEL
CMP is LT GRN, YEL, DK BLU
CAM is RED, PNK, BRN
MAP is LT GRN, GRY, BLK or ORG

They both are 5 pin connectors.
The two connectors have the following colored wires respectively:
Yellow, Pink, Black/White, Tan/Black, Tan
Blue, Brown, Blue/White, Purple, Tan

Good...that's what I thought!!! Phew. So the Crank Position Sensor plug should be on the back of the harness near the Starter?
