Default wire agains heat shield...after header install...

so my passenger side rear spark plug wire is resting against the heat shield??? do I have any worries????

the reason I am asking is because I feel like I'm getting a misfire every once in a while...but no Blinking SES light....
I checked all the connections....all looks good...
and I actuall dont know if its misfiring...just feels funny every once in a while.....like it wants to misfire..but not a strong one...and not while on the throttle....just at idle...
any ideas??

got 80000 miles on the engine...and I just switched over from valvoline 5w30 synthetic...to valvoline 5w30 maxlife

I think its just te idle...the wire is resting agains a prt of the car...not sure if it is a heat shield...the car has cooled down and after I get done tonight I will justreah my hand in and feel for melted stuff....

Like I said..I think its just in my head cause at throttle it doesnt misfire that I can tell
