Non kosher sink, very hot water poured on dairy utensils

Question:

Hi. There was some milky dishes in a non kosher sink, It is very doubtful for any traces of meat in the sink as I’m pretty sure it had been cleaned since washing meat dishes, used a few days ago.

Some boiling water from the kettle was poured into the sink, over some cutlery (with plastic handles) and a ceramic plate was also in the sink but I think the hot water only made contact with the base.

Is the cutlery not kosher? And the plate if only the bottom of it was touching the sink?

Thanks!

Answer:

Since the sink had not been used the last 24 hours with meaty or treif products the cuttlery and plates are still kosher.
