Default 97 EVO temp.

I have a 1997 road king with a CV carb. Today after riding I noticed the cam position sensor sealant was melting and oozing down the wiring harness. I’ve pulled it off and ordered a new one. The question is did it just fail or is the engine running to hot. There is no temp. Gauge on it. Any suggestions?

Common problem with original factory cam sensor.
original has beige/tan sealant while replacement has a black sealant.
