Default Vvt solenoid wires fried ECU ground

Hey guys it's been a while and a long journey of cars but found myself coming back to a 350 this time getting it track ready. Unfortunately after everything all that's left is to take care of this sputtering issue. I've tried rewording with oem connectors, changing the vvt solenoid, performed the vvt relearn through a Nissan scan tool but I can see that bank 2 vvt is not responding like bank 1 is. Figured out that it was not getting power as the ground from the ECM is not there. After much trial and error we figure the ECM portion that controls the vvt is fried when the wires got chewed up.

All I would like help with is figuring out which code ecu is for my car. I have 2003 enthusiast manual. I'd look at the ecu myself but I'm not with my car atm and would like to order a new part so it would be there by the time I get home.

Thanks for any help,
Teja
