Default help locating where this ground cable goes!!

I've just put the rebuilt motor in and i've been trying to troubleshoot why the fuel pump relay's not coming on...i'm thinking i might have a ground problem...anyways, i came across this ground cable sitting on the floor and im going crazy trying to find where it goes...
