    Where that braided line comes out of the block I would say! Normally there is either a oil pressure switch (little knob thingo) or a sender (big bell thingo). It sends a reading of oil pressure to the dash. I assume that line is for an aftermarket oil pressure gauge?

    Yeah, just zip tie it to the rest of the loom there or run a t-piece for both gauges. No harm in not running it.

    yeah leave it loose/

    the other end of that wire is down by the ECU plugs in the LH kick panel. On an original car, there would have been another dash harness that connects to that plug (near the ecu) that goes to the dash.
