I just realized last night as i was looking at it real quick that I cant even locate where the thing is so I can do my alt to battery run? Is it under the shroud? bottom of the engine?

See red circle. That is if your looking at the front of the motor.

Where is the alt's positive terminal though? Ive been trying to do the Big 3 upgrade to the wires and I don't know how to connect the battery to the alt. If you follow the power wire from the battery to the alt, you will see that it is first connected to a very inconvenient pipe. There a is very small bolt connecting the wire to the pipe so you can remove the wire, but it is in a very VERY small space. Anyone know how to get to it more easily or better yet how to connect directly to the alt?
