What color are the wires that go to the distributor connector

Chevrolet Silverado 2001 Silverado 4.3 two wheel drive long wheel base automatic 250000 miles
I've done the engine swap for a friend and apparently the distributor connector pigtail got pulled away from the wires on the truck. I have a new pigtail but the wires on it are a different color than what's on the body.

Engine noise

Chevrolet Silverado 2011  90000 miles
My car started making a strange noise, as if it were a template's bearing or damaged band, but we've removed this last one and nothing changed. We've also opened the car's distributor and replaced the oil pump which was softly damaged, but again nothing changed. We've checked it with a stethoscope and the noise seems to be coming from the bottom. There was no overheating nor an oil failure, any help to give me?

The noise might be coming from a piston rod's piece of metal.

Thanks for your comment, Delores. I tell you that we've finally solved the problem when we took the engine out and found three damaged propellers. We've then changed them and luckily the car is now working properly.
