Trace from the relay out. Track it down you'll find it!

There are more then 1 fusable link... the smaller wires coming off the main lug on the starter relay are also fusable.

Bad idea. They have the same function as a fuse. The best route is to go get fuse holders. Each link is color coded just like a fuse, red=10, blue=15, green=30. Replace the link with a holder and fuse of corresponding color.
