2LT 4runner wire (maybe oil guage pickup) help.

Just helped a mate change his oil and filter on a 2LT.

Somewhere along the line we have knocked a wire and it has become disconnected. Will do my best at describing the wire.

The end that is now loose, has a black female plug on it (quite small), that then runs into a small yellow and blue wire that connects to a joining plug (near the alternator). The wire from the other end of the joining plug seems to run into the clump of wires that go into the starter relay area.

The wire is kept tidy by the wire/cable holders that are on the alternator (although it doesnt actually connect to the alternator).

Hope that is enough for someone to go by, haven't got and pics.

Anyone care to shed some light for me?

Yup, that should be your oil pressure sender line... around where the feed line for the alt comes out of the block there should be a little bolt head sticking out, it should be fairly easy to see (completely depending of course on the amount of crap caked on the block, and how far to you can see past the turbo)... should just be a matter of slipping it back on :)
