I don't suspect 3V8_AON spike, as you didn't replace anything from its power supply.
Possibly damage caused by corrosion.
If 3V8_AON is stable now, check U8100's LDOs.
Always allow 10-15s before checking in diode mode, or ohm scale.
Did you maintain the position for U3100/200?
Try reflashing corresponding TBT ROM; make backup first.
Just in case, check at LP800 too.
If no low readings on secondary coils, then is safe to inject voltage on PPBUS_AON.
As always start with just 1V, increasing slowly and looking at the board with thermal camera.
Set amp limit to 3A, should be sufficient; also remove CPU heatsink.
0.012 is not...
"check diode mode to ground on all small coils around both PMUs (U8100 & U7700)"
No need to apply power for that!
Use similar board as guide to make an idea about diode mode readings on the areas affected by liquid.

So you don't get low reading between any coil and PPBUS_AON.
You can resolder the main fuses.
A working board can help to compare all the readings.
Now check diode mode to ground on all small coils around both PMUs (U8100 & U7700).
Which areas look affected by liquid?
