Dave . I would really recommend you Get that Box Totally Replaced with the new rail Mount
enclosure and a complete rewire .
  I would hate for one of your future Video's  showing how your house went up in smoke .
 That Box layout is a real NO NO . I would but that on your
" I must do list as number 1 project . "  .. Do it for the Kids Safety if nothing else ..
