As I understand it, exterior above ground wiring must be enclosed in a conduit. OTOH the existing wiring is not exposed to sunlight or to any "traffic". Need I worry? If so, what is the best (cheapest) solution?

If the wire is exposed to the weather, it is supposed to be protected. Conduit, sealtite, whatever.
Whoever wired it that way had no knowledge or care about the codes. As much as I can hate them (the codes), it's usually the law.
