I imagine the three plugs you have are.

-3 pin plug- this goes to the throttle body potentiometre.
-2 pin plug- this goes to the idle switch on the throttle body.
-2 pin plug- this goes to the crankcase breather heater - if you look carefully at the plug on the breather pipe, the connector doesn't even have pins. It's for colder climate models only.

where is the crank case breather heater located?

if i am correct it the small breather that runs inline with induction pipe and goes to front of engine located between induction pip and engine. there is a rectangular connection just and empty space that connection plugs into.
