Gents, I found this in a shower ( photo)

What would you say is the best course of action.

1, new shower.
Or
2, Replace cable. Replace connector block. 60amp connector block?

Cheers.

I wouldn't be surprised if the internal wiring has ultrasonic welded compacted ends, like the link cables in CUs etc. They have the advantage over ferrules of not introducing extra contact surfaces which can make a difference in high current density situations.
On the internal wiring yes, my post was relating to the feed cable to the shower unit.
