Default Broken connectors

I just finished a timing belt replacement on my '99 LS. It has 200,000 miles and my problem is some of the electrical connectors are very brittle from engine heat. In particular, about 3 of the coil pack connectors broke along with the connector on the back of the alternator. Are these available somewhere without replacing the whole harness? Thank you in advance.

I'd check auto zone, prolegs auto parts etc. Etc. Also jump yards can be the sweet spot sometimes

The dealer wont sell single connectors, just the full harness. I needed a few after my T-belt job. I just grabbed 'em at the junkyard for 50 cents a piece. Thanks for reminding me, I still need one for my crank sensor.

There are some sites that sell just the connectors if you need to repair your wiring. Here is one I found with some pictures of connectors that look familiar
