Hello, these plugs technically shouldnt be able to be plugged into the incorrect sensor in this case, since you're dealing with I can try to label them for you if that helps.

These are the wiring diagrams that show the wire colors for those 2 sensors and the IAC motor. But you shouldnt have any trouble getting these back in their correct places.
