I had exact same symptoms with a bad firmware flash screen would stay black with only the orange light showing.
I tried everything you did and in the end what fixed it was a new mfp still got the old board actually would love to recover it but I think its goosed for good. I tried many different firmwares none would work, diff nvram, diff dims, diff pcb I even tried to flash the mfp in a different machine and the symptoms followed the board so its definitely the mfp.
I cant believe theres no safe boot to flash the board but anyway...
