There are reports of something red hot and flowing under the rubble that some witnesses described as molten steel. AKAIK there is no material evidence that it was steel. I don't think anyone analysed a sample of the molten material and no large lumps of solidified steel were excavated.

To finish, none of these stories prove there was molten (as in liquid) steel at the WTC. There's no evidence temperatures were hot enough to produce that (whatever the energy source), and some of the stories claiming "molten steel" have built-in implausibilities. There was certainly glowing metal, but this only indicates temperatures within the range of a fire.

The pools of molten steel idea was based on edited images, the orignals of which were really easy to find. It was debunked not long after it was brought up. Of course, given how people are sometimes inclined to avoid all evidence that goes against their beliefs, this molten steel idea is still alive and well in certain circles.
