Actualy the ECU has male contacts (pins) and the harness connectors have female contacts (sockets)
I need the harness connectors and the female contact sockets.
And there are two sizes, with the majority of contacts being the smaller sized ones.
I have an ECU that I received in the mail yesterday. The connectors are on my Son's Integra and I will be seeing him on Saturday.
At the least , we will extract the worst looking contacts and try to clean them by scraping with an xacto blade, etc.
I'll probably dunk all 3 connectors into white vinegar (old pinball corroded contact trick) flush with distilled water and then soak in alchohol to evaporate anty traces of water.
I've been in electronics for ~ 30 years and I repair all kinds of gear, especially vintage synths, effects and guitar amps.
I am well aware of funky problems that are caused by cruddy connections.
That's why I would like to recrimp all the contacts.
However, we need to get the Integra going again and I can rework the contacts at a later time.
I did get a response back from Amp but they are requesting a picture of the connectors.
Once I take them I'll email them to Amp and hope for some correct part numbers.

Thanks
