The first item is fitted to the RHS of the oil pan, there is a distance piece that keeps the bracket away from the oil pan, the plastic connecting block fitted is the wrong type it should have three connections fitted to it not two, you can see the outline when it had the original block fitted.
The second item is bolted to the ally: part of the sump and is used to hold the battery cable across the front of the engine, you should have two of these.

This bracket looks like the one which bolts to one of the injection pump mounting bolts. The clip holds the top of the oil dip stick tube.  Previously, the two terminal electrical connector is for earlier cars. Three terminal connectors were used on the later cars with ignition ballast resistor by-pass and the later starters.

Here is a snap of the connector on my 250 SL. It is mounted at the front of the injection pump, but is holding a small line that runs from the back side of the FIP (between the FIP and the engine block) to the side of the block just under the power steering reservoir. An oil line?

The brown wire in first picture is a ground. There is a small hole to screw it to on the inner fender well below the front of the coolant bottle.
The other wire- pull pack the black sheathing at the end and see what colors they are. also what does the ends look like.

Right on the ground wire Tyler.  The electric idle solenoid is not hooked up from the factory on some cars.
Depends on the year and the equipment.  Yes. need more info on the long wire, one wire or two? colors? coming from where?

That is the wire for the stop solenoid on the injection pump. If you follow the other wire that leaves the firewall with it it should go to the microswitch on the accelerator linkage on the firewall.

Look like "wire attachment" screws.  Probably used in an aux. fuse box to attach elec. wiring. These are also used to attach elec. wires in some light fixtures (entrance light?)
