HELP!! Broke something not sure what it is ? Pics included !!

Hey everybody !

i was trying to remove my alternator from the top
so i have unbolted it and moved my FPR to make some space
i started pulling the alternator, and it seems that i was pulling lil bit too hard

i ended up breaking this cable, im not sure what is this used for ?
i would like to know what is this cable used for ? and how can it be fixed ?

Is that the mivec solenoid? If so, will need to replace the whole thing. No repairing that break.

doesn't the upstream O2 sensor and the crank position sensor also have a connection near there as well too though? Kind of looks like one of those connectors too.
