Hey Coder, welcome to TRS man. I wouldn't be extremely concerned about them. Are any of them hot? Are there any obvious signs of something being removed nearby it recently?

At least 2 of the connectors nearer the firewall will be for an Automatic transmission

The ones closer to Rad support may be for the EVAP system if its been disconnected, sucks gas fumes out of the gas tank

Just guessing, I don’t see a wire going to the brake master. My 89 has one. It would be on the right side if it’s like mine. Wires up by the wiper fluid may be for cruise control or other options. Washer fluid level ect ect ..... manufactures often use the same wire harness on all same model vehicles regardless of options for simplicity.
