Wiring question 73' [brake light switch]

Working on the new wiring loom today.

Two questions:
1. The brake light switch has approximately two feet of wire length. This is made up of 1 green wire with a single white stripe. And 1 green wire with a red stripe. They have bullet ends, Where do they go?

2. Coming off the loom piece with the plug end that goes to the wiper motor there are two additional wires with bullet ends; 1 solid green. And, 1 green with a black stripe. Where do they go?

My wiring diagram shows coming off the [Stop Lamp Switch] 1 green wire and 1 green wire with a purple stripe.

Green/white and green/red are signal wires.
green/black is the gas tank sending unit.
brake light switch should be solid green and green/purple
