I'm not sure to what extent links and embed content on OpGuides will stay up. Further, some websites (Twitter, Instagram) are requiring login to view content. Hosting a screenshot is an option, though poses more significant copyright concern. A happy middle ground is needed.

Non embedded content (links) could all probably be set to redirect to the Internet Archive. This seems like the most practical way to maintain access short of keeping everything local and serving via torrent (necessary as some content, namely videos, are especially large). Again, this poses real copyright questions but should be protected-ish as it is for archival purposes.

I am very open to alternative ideas

42 Should help with this. It may also be wise to make a script to scrape all the links on the site and make sure all of them have been archived on archive.org.
