I'm concerned too. I'll verify that's the case, but I'm sure I didn't have a stray live wire attached to it. The + connector is secured to the starter. No idea where it why there'd be a live connection attached to the chassis.

it appears to be a standard starter motor ie no earth connections just + connections with earth return via metalwork. As such I am concerned about your conclusion that the chassis could be live. It should not be possible!
