I am at a computer (at work) that does not have edit features, or I would copy your picture and circle the issues.

On your positive battery post is a universal battery cable clamp or end. Similar to this one.

Your's is slightly different in that there are two bolts that clamp on to the stripped back insulation on a red cable.
To that are two cables with metal ends and another cable with stripped back insulation.

This is the original design.

The cable end clamp goes over the battery positive terminal and has a stud on the end of the clamp.
Two other wires connect to it.
One that is directly to the alternator
The other supplies power to the rest of the vehicle.

The other end of the pictured battery cable goes to the starter.

The listing for this cable is shown on eBay. (linked below) Listed at $45.25, free shipping and tax depending on location. Widely available at other retailers
This would be a far better solution as it will eliminate the exposed cable.

Any add on power cables should have a metal lug end and be connected to the stud on the end of the cable clamp.

I would also suggest getting a battery heat shield. Not needed for the current seasons. However in the summer months keeping as much heat away from tne battery will extend the battery life.
AND a cover of some type over the positive battery cable clamp. Your current battery is sealed. If you get a vented battery, the battery will vent very small particals of acid that will create more corrosion on the battery cable clamp to battery connection. Reducing or eliminating corrosion is very important to long battery life.
