Fusible links are available at most auto parts stores. Certainly automotive electrical stores and places like Summit.
Now that you know what they are, and what they are called, getting some 16G fusible links shouldn't present a problem.

As you can see Lembrey, the extreme heat from the exhaust has attacked one of the wires insulation.
If you have headers, the issue is worse yet.
You may want to consider an insulating sleeve specifically for cables to protect your new harness to the starter.
They can be found at Summit, usually three ft long, one inch inside diameter.
Some sleeves need to be slipped over the harness before wiring up. Others can be slit open.
