I know the primary o2 sensors are not at risk of melting or burning through. I’m gonna recheck the secondary o2 sensors for good measure now.

You mentioned that it melted to a crisp, as in the sensor itself melted? I thought they kinda go where the bung is as I’ve never heard of one melting prior😳
No, the connector plug and associated harness. When we took it out, it looked as though it may have actually caught fire. Either way, it's all good now, but definitely wrap the PS line. If that melts, that's a guaranteed fire.
