Default Burned Headlight Harness Passanger Side

Hello to everyone! As you can see I am new to the forum and this is my first post. I recently aquired a VW Passat 2001.5 for a very good price but I had to change the timing belt (freakin 1k) and now I noticed that the left headlight projector is burned. I went to a garage and they told me that the harness is burned and they advised me to go to the dealership and buy it so they can install it.

So when I fixed my timing belt I also wanted to buy the part. I cut the two wires and I removed the harness so I can show it to the parts manager because he had trouble finding it in their inventory (no part number written on it - probably it is on the part that was melted). They told me that I have to buy the whole headlight for that small harness.

Now on the internet i found diverse harnesses with wires but they do not look the same; since i do not have much experience with this I do not know exactly which one might work.

If any one of you could advise me of what other part I could replace this harnes with I would be very grateful - and also the website from where I could purchase it.

I'm attaching a picture of the burned harness.

Thank you ,
Dan.
