Axis,Vegas fire hazard!

I was changing the oil in my Vegas today and noticed some weird little lights coming from under the hood. There are two air ducts, from just above the radiator to ,I believe, the heater. They are wire reinforced and sit right on top of a 100 amp breaker. The wires had worn through and contacted the bare breaker wire, and were glowing red! It melted about 6 inches of the duct. I must have bumped the duct and made contact. Sure glad it happened when I was right there.
Replaced the duct with heavier plastic flex tube and taped up the exposed circuit breaker. I suggest you tape it up as well.
