Yup, they were definitely originally yellow wires, now with so much resistance that the plastic has overheated and burnt to brown. I found mine to be just like that last year whilst fixing an alternator cover oil-leak. The original wires were cheapo steel, not copper. Replacement is a very wise precaution!
