What version of them the Moto G4 Plus do you have? I mean, XT1642, XT1643, XT1644 (there are different versions). Furthermore there's only one leaked soak test update file, which is eligible for several versions of G4 and G4 Plus, but not all of them!

Why don't you download the other file (that is for your Moto g4 plus) and flash that using stock recovery?

Potter vs xt1687

Sorry for the noob question but what is the difference between "potter" and "xt1687?" I searched but couldn't find anything conclusive about differences between potter, xt1685, xt1686, xt1687, xt1688, etc.
I just got an xt1687 from Amazon but it seems all the ROMs are for the "potter" variation. I'm trying to figure out what differences are so I can tell which ROMs will work or not work for my device.
Thanks for any help.
If you'd look at about phone in settings, you'd see your model number. Potter is the codename that was used by Lenovo for the Moto G5 plus. XT1687 is the official model number for the Moto G5 plus. Its the same phone.

So are all variants (xt1685, xt1686, xt1687, etc.) considered "potter?" Any ROM listed for use with potter will work regardless of RAM and storage sizes?

Yes, 'potter' is the device name for all Moto G5 Plus variants, for the "regular" Moto G5 it's 'cedric' and so on. Some issues do pop up for certain variants based on differences like having NFC/compass or not, but are usually minor and/or fixable.

You can't unlock the bootloader on the Amazon Prime version and without an unlocked bootloader, you can't root. There may be work-arounds so check in the Moto G4 Plus section because it's more active and pretty much anything you can do to a G4+ works on the plain G4.

Can you please specify which rom you flashed as this is common when flashing wrong stock firmware.
But before please read here about your problem(same discussion) https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/help/moto-g4-pluss-model-changed-to-g4-lost-t3496912

Yes, it is possible to install G4 plus roms in G4, without any problem. G4 / G4 plus has the same codename (athene).
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Yes, it works without any problem, I'm using a XT1644 firmware on a XT1622.

Moto G4 Plus being recognized as Moto G4!!

Hello, after installing the stock ROM and blocking the Moto G4 Plus bootloader, I saw that my digital biometric reader stopped working and in the settings my cell phone is being recognized as Moto G4, I tried installing other ROMs but it always remains the same. Sorry for English ..

Maybe you did not flashed the moto g4 plus stock rom. Instead you flashed moto g4 stock rom maybe.
Please check what exactly you have flashed
