Does the other loom have 2 male and 2 females joined by a short section and the other wire is long one?
If so then I suspect it's the fog light cutout, one connector plugs into the vehicle loom and the other connects to the light cluster. The other wire connects to the socket. Basically the fog lights are then fed from the socket and when a trailer is plugged in it breaks the contact and turns the vehicle fog lights off.
That's how it was on a vehicle I did recently but my own doesn't have that.
Everything will work fine without i except the vehicle fog lights will stay on when a trailer is connected. IID PRO

thanks armalites
yes that sounds about the right description of this loom
as I only tow Ifor Williams type trailer I don't think fog light reflection will be a problem

Genuine or aftermarket electrics? Sounds very much like aftermarket  06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!
