The 3010 parts book shows the Delco Remy with the clip-on cap used on serial number 1E2999 and prior. A Delco Remy that used screws to hold the cap on was used serial number 1E3000 and after. It also appears that the one with the screws holding the cap on was the replacement distributor for the one with clips, if the distributor was replaced on one of the earlier serial number tractors.
So yes, a picture would help, but answering if the cap is held on with screws or clips should tell the story. The clip-on cap distributors usually had a tag riveted on. The later screw on caps had the Delco part number stamped in the aluminum body, and they were not always stamped deep and can be a pain to find. There is also the possibility that it has been replaced with an aftermarket clone. Here a picture looking down on the points would help.
And the distributor doesn't care if it is positive or negative ground.

I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
