I think you are over exagerating.

Adding a guage is specifically allowed, and you can add whatever wiring you want to that end.

I don't understand the difficulty of running a new wire from the fuse box to replace the wire that is shorted, has cracked insulation.

I really don't see how replacing wiring that is gone would make you illegal. Do your best effort to reproduce what was there. Maybe no one else races your car, but they do exist and you should be able to see what the engine harness looked like.
