The wire to the starter is a separate piece, not part of any harness. It's
also bigger around than your little finger, and usually black.
I'm not sure what you're looking at ... but there are only normally only two
brown wires (without tracers). One of them runs from the fuse block to the
starter solenoid, the other runs from the fuse block to the ammeter. If
memory serves, all 4 ends have Lucar connectors on the later cars, but the
ring terminal might be for the solenoid. Of course, with a custom harness
there may be differences, perhaps you should ask British wiring what they've
done. The output lead to the alternator might be solid brown, although it
really should be brown/white.
