Neep help locating ground cable from engine to frame

I followed the ground from the battery to the frame to the engine. Is this the only ground that grounds the engine to the frame

Having trouble starting 98 maxima. Dealer is telling me that my ground is no longer good. They said I need to clean the ground that grounds the engine and transmission. I'm trying to make sure I'm cleaning the right ground. Any help is appreciatied.

Yes that is the correct ground. It is closest to the right side of the engine near the bottom. (Looking from the front of the car.

theres one more from the battery to right under the tray from there it goes to the engine. do what i did . go to auto zone buy a couple of ground cables and go straight from the battery ground to the engine
and one to the shock tower brace.
