Default Battery Wiring! Need help!

Hey guys, I have my new engine in the car and I've started putting it back together.

One snag I've run into is I removed the entire battery cable harness that runs from the battery, altenator, positive auxillary post and starter. I have it all put back in place since it was all obvious except for one thing. I can't remember where the hell I disconnected the negative ground wire by the starter? There is a pair of cables *pos. & neg.* that run down the chassis on the passenger side to the starter. The positive hooks onto the starter and the other I assume is a chassis ground. Could anyone please take a peak underneith their car and tell me where its attached. Is it hooked to the engine, the chassis and where exactly.

I really need your help guys, I only have certain days I can work on this thing and I need to get my car running for my wedding.

thanks.

I can't find an exact photo but this is from the parts book. It's the cable that goes under the bolt narked 16. It's into the block. I hope this helps.
