Glad you got it taken care of.
I just recently gremlin-proofed mine at that spot. I used a section from the handle of a shoehorn as a backbrace for the loom where it passed the brace there, zip tied it and taped everything over.
Since then I've found some stuff that has changed the world for me regarding wiring looms.
http://www.gates.com/products/industrial/industrial-hydraulics/accessories/polysleeve-wrap Poly sleeve Wrap by Gates and other imitators is a product made for wrapping and protecting hydraulic hoses on heavy equipment. It works perfectly for wiring looms. I found it in 7/8" which I used on the 1 1/2" loom where it passes over the rear of the engine compartment from the center Y to behind the coolant reservoir. You just stretch one end out till it passes over the loom, and start spiraling it on. Need to do maintenance there or put in a new wire or whatever? Just spiral it off, and use it again when you've finished what you were doing! It's strong and way more heat resistant and abrasion resistant than convoluted tubing, and the 3/8 stuff will go up to 7/8" I believe the 7/8 stuff can probably go to 2".
Any place that does hydraulic hoses should carry it. Gates says they make lots of sized and 2 colors, but I only found the 2 sizes, and a ton of colors including neon pink green blue.... Check around for hydraulic hose spiral poly wrap if you need to re-loom something. It's cheap too.
