The ground is the sensor body and the engine. It should work if the sensor is OK

I don't know the correct name for it, buts a circular connector with a bit cut out, not dissimilar to a circlip shape. it's obviously been clipped onto or around something at some point, I judt dont know what. 1982 Kz550 LTD

Yes, the blue/red is the oil pressure sender wire and it should go under the screw on the sending unit.

Here is a color wiring diagram. www.kzrider.com/filebase?task=download.send&id=281&catid=62&m=0

here is the factory service manual, though the wiring diagrams are sadly black and white. www.kzrider.com/modules/ServiceManuals/Kz400500550_79to83.pdf
