More likely melted a wire. The electronic boxes on the car are required to have reverse battery protection built in and be able to handle a few seconds. If smoke came from the back side of the engine, I would check the wire going from the starter to the alternator.

There no power going to the purple wire to the starter,but it do not look fryed

Richie? Is that you?

If you've got no power going to that wire, then you probably have a fried wire.

I really feel like that's you Richie.
