Broke the leads on my EGR temp leads. Please advise.

So I was changing my plug wires and I noticed that when I was dragging my knuckles I managed to rip apart the leads to the temp sensor on the EGR valve. Does that thing have a polarity or can I put it back together any way? That, and how do I reassemble the plug? This is on the engine side so getting a new temp sensor will not help. Below are a few pictures for reference. Thanks.

Assuming you can't purchase the terminals for the connector ...

The easiest thing to do is get the pigtail from a boneyard truck and splice it in.

Or you can just wire the 2 together... I think the temp sensor was a CA smog thing, federal smog trucks have no sensor, just a jumper plug... I did this to a truck to get the CEL to shut off, and it passed smog fine.

It'd be nice to de-clutter a bit under the hood. On the other side, I've been meaning to clean up the whole air box disaster and just run a simple pipe from the MAF to the throttle body. I also hear that it helps a little with low end pickup.
