Default 5.3 Vortec- Temp Sensor Wire Cut Off by Accident - HELP!

Okay, I'm the careless idiot who accidentally cut off my temperature sensor wire while "editing" my wire harness for my engine swap. Now I get to try to fix it. The problem is that I cannot find the sensor or the wires needed to power the sensor. Can you guys help figure this out?

The CTS circuit is as follows.

Connector
Cavity A-Black. Goes to Blue 80 at the PCM
Cavity B-Yellow. Goes to Blue 74 at the PCM

Okay, and thank you for the quick response. But, I threw the connector in the trash so I need to find a replacement. Since I don't have the old one to look at I need to know which wire goes to which pin.

Here's a picture of the sensor. It has two pins and I can't tell which wire goes to which pin. I need to find a replacement plug too. Any ideas where to find one?

Napa has the temp sensor connector. Connector comes with connector and 2 wires ready to be crimped or soldered on.
