      right behind the smog pump if that's still in there.

            sorry IIRC is "if I recall correctly". Internet slang/shorthand. Search for a wire going to the front lower passenger side of the block and that should be it. If it's not there, you should at least find a bolt or bolt hole not doing anything on the side of the block in that area, which would be where the ground strap SHOULD be.
