Exclamation URGENT: No power at the fuse box

Guys I have an 85 Square Body. Parked in an awkward spot. Truck was running fine. Moved it slightly to do some cleaning. Went to restart zero power. To anything.

-New Battery fully charged.
-Put the meter on battery, good
-Put matter on the two red leads of alternator good.
-Checked ignition fuses and others good
-Put meter on fuse box, no good

The power cable TO the fuse box has power.
The box itself does not. I am think some water got to the box when i was cleaning.

I blew everything out with compressed air but still no power at the box.

Here is one diagram that show the path of the red power wires to the fusebox. You can see what fuses they power. It seems that it's obvious that the problem is at the box.
