Default Needing help! Water temp sensor connector

Hello! New to the forum. I'm needing help with a problem. My trusty assistant accidentally lowered his side of the intake while removing it. It crushed the connector to the water temp sensor on the front coolant crossover pipe. I was replacing the starter when this happened. Any place to find a new connector that I can splice n solder into the wiring harness?
My next problem is how to identify the correct connector for the right and left knock sensor in the engine valley? Again my trusty assistant disconnected before I could mark them.....

Update..... Got the starter replaced! Dd plugs as well along with vacuum lines. I found the coolant temp sensor connector New on eBay! I cleaned and checked all my connections and used dielectric grease to weather proof them. Went ahead and replaced my radiator and hoses,Rockauto prices are great! The car runs great and I now have a base level of engine service.
