Thanks for all the info.and suggestions and if I can figure out how to pull the right levers in the correct order I'll pop a couple of snaps on here.
The pic shows the springs at rest, just before they take up tension. The distance between the centre point of the fixed pin for the outer end of each spring and the centre of the tiny spring receiving hole in the moving pivot is exactly 0.50".
Also the other numbers I can make out on the battered plate are; BN9-2, 533B, 21812. They might just mean something to someone.
The distributor came with the engine on the rolling '37 Ruby chassis I got a couple of years ago, there's certainly no suggestion that it was ever original to the chassis or even the engine or even an A7 for that matter..!
