A rubbed through spark plug wire would be my guess.
Looks very similar to what my spark plug wire looked like when it rubbed through.

The leg of the wiring harness coming
from the throttle body area connections
goes right across the top of the front spark plug
wire.
Thanks Blake !

Idle speed adjust cables can do that, too.

Good catch!
