Does anyone know the model of the connector that is at the motor end of the cable? It’s different than the main motor connectors (smaller) and I need to build an adapter for it to attach to a new Z-Axis motor. I’ trying to avoid snipping the connector off the cable and I don’t find the model in any BOM.

That looks like the connector for the Left and Right motors - an XHP-6 from JST

The similar but smaller connector for the stock Z motor is PHR-6 from JST

Sorry, you want the mating connector. ~~I’ve got a bunch in my spares collection, IM me and I’ll send a couple…~~  
The motor connector is [this](https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/jst-sales-america-inc/B6B-PH-K-S-LF-SN/455-1708-ND/926615).
