Can you back up OPNsense and install FreeBSD for testing purposes? https://www.freebsd.org/where/ Install it and see if it reboots cleanly.

If the computer is powerful enough, you could even consider a virtual firewall under Proxmox, ESXi or similar. That would remove the need of a hardware reboot for a firewall restart.
