The connector on the wire loom that the fusible link plugs into seems to be pretty damaged. I circled it in red below. The clip isn't holding it in. Is there any reason I can't just connect the yellow cable going into this connection to the positive on the batter directly? Or is there a replacement connector i could put on?

That’s how they typically fry. Welcome to the club.
The metal spade connectors that join that plug monstrosity together develop resistance as they corrode, which creates heat, which melts the plug.

Replacements are available. Other members will chime in.

Whatever you do, make sure you have the correct gauge (colour) fusible link wire between the battery and your wiring harness.

in this specific situation & unique case shown in your above tech photos , Yes i have a all oem japan spec. parts repair solution too address the burned up parts ...

- it would be better as a whole here for you and your FJ62 , for you to take several , as in more then 3+ photos of the big-parts-picture here im every way ....

- you only show 1 small portion of the Fusible Links set up above ?


- so , ...

- 3 good over view photos straight / vertical up and down , then 1 from the LH side view and RH side view , them one nice rear engine bay facing one & 1 facing out towards the grill as well ....

- there is a small black little plastic box with a trap-door and hooks on either side of it . the junction box , flip open the trap door and photos of this as-it is now ...

- lastly how the whole fusible links attach to your B+ battery terminal as a whole here is very necessary to see clearly on my end ,,,,


- all the above are related to this burn-out electrically speaking , so knowing the root caused and also knowing what is still in good working order is what all the above translates into here ...........


make sense ...?

if not tell me and i can try to explain differently , understanding the tech. on the FJ62 Fusible links set up can be as shifty topic to wrap ones head around ....

Can you post a photo of the engine bay showing where that fusible link lives?

Do you have one that is not working, or do you not have one at all?
 
I checked all the 3 contacts and I have continuity, wires look fine. I thought is was the issue, my alternator( that was tested) is not charging.
Checked all 3 fuses on the line, the plug on the back of the alternator is not cracked, going to keep looking but would like an extra one to keep in case of...

This is probably a stupid suggestion, but if the 2 round ended are available, could you possibly just buy 2 and sacrifice one and pin out the round one to replace this? View attachment 3870314

Male/Female Terminals inside might need to be replaced (un crimp and crimp new) to work with the nee corresponding connectors.
