Question Engine Wire Harness Automatic for Standard transmission

Hello, I recenlty bought from DeadJeep store on ebay a replacement Engine Wire Harness for my Standard Transmission Jeep XJ 98,
actual one is quite melted, repaired and is giving me a lot of headaches (IAC valve is probably not being recognized bc of it) the thing is
this harness was removed from an automatic 98 XJ Jeep, I've seen there is a special cable/harness only for the transmission so I assumed
this part just gets not connected and look for that specific harness, but still not sure so I was wondering if someone here would know
if it would fit properly or would definitely not work.

Deepjeep guys cannot guarantee it will work but are giving me 90 days to try it and see if all is ok, or I can just cancel and have a refund
and look somewhere else (which honestly gonna be hard, I have search for a couple of days all over internet). I'm attaching the picture of the harness I bought.

Thanks in advance. Great community btw, I've been learning a lot from it lately. Doing tons of reparations on my Cherokee.

The parts catalog shows different part numbers depending on auto/manual and 2wd/231/242. I think the main difference between auto/manual would be the extra wiring for TCM which you can ignore. You will have to figure out which wires to grab from the connector for the NSS to use for the neutral switch and reverse lights though.
