Need some simple help!

I just changed my valve cover gasket, which was a serious pain in my ass. Afterwards I plugged in all the connectors, but 2 of the connectors are the same size right by eachother. Trying to figure out what one goes where...

Can anyone look at their car on the front of the motor right in front of the fan area and let me know if I have it correct based on the below picture and the wire loom placement. ANY help would be great!

Which model is this?

Have you tried starting the vehicle?

325i and yes i have started and drove it with the plugs put in this way and reversed. Makes no difference in the car for some reason. BUT I just don't want to jack somethin up lol.

Updated the pic to see the path the wire follows...
