Main engine wiring harness trouble

Hi I’m in need of help, I have recently converted my Mini Cooper 2001 in to a Mini Cooper S. I have done this as a university project and it was going great until it came to the wiring. All of the plugs on the engine are fine as I have the engine wiring loom for the mini cooper s and my old loom for the cooper is still on the car. In addition I also have the ECU, EWS box and KEY to match, however as the new engine came out of a 2004 MCS the main engine wiring harness seems to be different (this is the plug located on the passenger side of the car) My cooper harness has 8 wires and the new cooper s engine has 10 and the plug is a different size.

I was wondering if anyone has had this problem. Wiring is not a problem for me however I can not obtain the sufficient wiring diagrams needed to perform the wiring needed. I am in need of the diagram for the cooper 2001 and the diagram for the cooper s 2004 does anyone have any of these?

I Live in the United Kingdom and can not seem to get any help from my main dealerships here; they say they can not release such diagrams so I’m in need of help!

This manuel is supposed have more detailed wiring diagrams than the standard Bentley manual and the price is reasonable:
