He touched the wick to what?
To the steel.
Here, I assume "steel" is noun. If I found a definition for "to steel" that fit the sentence by making sense, I would tend to say that it wasn't a noun.
That was exactly my propensity. It was difficult to me to accept steel as a noun, but I didn't find any suitable sense of "to steel" as a verb.
My guess, after Jaskin's explanations, is that maybe is a noun and simply it is wrong written.
