Timeframe for first time genital hsv 1symtoms in males and possible exposure risk

Im a male and On Friday 8 th dec. I had oral from a female. I fingered her as well. Later we had a shower together and hardly my penis touched her butts for sometime.
She had an recurrent outbreak of ghsv1 on her butt around 5 weeks back. As claimed by her mostly it was scars or scabbed sores.
We didn't had sex at all and I didn't give her any oral as well.
1. How much is risk Involved in getting ghsv1 from this exposure ?
2. It's been 7 days today and no symptoms. What is ideal window for any symptoms to develop ?
3. Was having oral risky ?Considering She never had Oral sores in her life
Any suggestions for my next steps .
Please help as im really  worried as google says lots of things

1. If she only has genital hsv1 then your risk is zero.

2.2-14 days. 4 being average and 20 days later being very rare. In all honesty I wouldn't be concerned at all. Even if she had hsv1 orally which is very very doubtfull the odds are so very low.

3. Absolutely not.
