Where does this go?

Okay so after sorting out most of the misc. wires the previous owner left hanging around after he swapped motors, im not sure what to make of this one:



Not the best picture I know but I cant seem to figure out where this goes/what it does. It runs through the firewall. So can anyone tell me what this is and where it should go?

Its a shot in the dark but It kind of looks like a battery connector maybe he had an amp and subs in the truck? is that an extra wire running off of it and can we see the other angles I can't tell if that's a bolt or just a nub.

It looks like the connector for a knock sensor. Do you have a picture of the other side?

Heres about the best pictures I could get of it. That little pin on the top looks similar to a door pin.





It runs back through the firewall here:

In that last picture I wasnt talking about that harness, I was just showing that is where the wire on that thing in the first two pictures goes through the firewall at that point.
