Is cover missing in this tranmission connection?

[Diverjer]

While under the Silverado the other day, I noticed this connection that goes into the transmission on the right/drivers side.   Just doesn't look right, looks like a cover is missing?  Thought about covering somehow or filling with some of that putty I use to seal around A/C tubing as it goes into the house, but have left alone for now.  Maybe this is suppose to be left open to elements?   Not the way I would do an electrical connection, but I am an old fart and not use to new ways.

Its food ugly but good. There is a outer ring made of plastice that roll locks that harness in and the pins like everything are weather pack so no worries.

Where do you think the outer ring might have gone?

I think the outer ring that 1SLOW1500 mention is that piece with what looks like a latch at about the 4 o'clock position.   Sounds like the open pin holes as well as uses pins are weather packed so water and trash don't get in causing problems.  I was going to stick plastic wrap or similar in first (didn't want to fill holes up with putty) and then pack with plumbers putty or Ideal duct seal putty.  Now I will leave alone. 

 

Yea, that is a butt ugly fitting that looks like something missing.
