Default Crab Dist point conversion ??

I have been doing flathead distributors for myself and Badger State club members since the mid 70s when I purchased a Sun tester from the Sun rep while working as a tech at a local Cadillac dealer. The other day a member brought his dist over for me to check, never seen a point conversion like this, he has had the car over 15 years this is the first time he had it off.

Do you have a parts distributor to get the points plate out of? Unless there are part numbers or other good identification marks on the points I'm not sure that you are going to know how to source replacements.
