@yakoenicol it is usually the outside pins that are the + and - connection. Black wire will be negative, RED will be positive and there should be a blue wire for frequency Let us know what Mac Pro fan you want to use and why. If you can tell us what logicboard you have we may even find out how it is wired on the connector end. Look for a 820-XXXX number on the board.
