There should be a stepped bolt (or is it a setscrew?) with a plain shank 5/16" diameter I think just under the head and a lower 1/4" BSF portion that fixes it into the body. On the plain portion there should be a spring washer and plain washer above the clamp piece, to provide some stiffness for the manual advance/retard system. I have looked at the parts lists for 1933/4 and they all show the earlier distributor of 1930/31 pattern and do not show the system I have described. Perhaps someone else can find an illustration in one of the standard works.
