Dwell setting will not change timing enough to cause that kind of exhaust heating. You need to check ignition timing and advance operation. I suspect the advance mechanism is stuck allowing no spark advance or somthing in the dist drive gears is worn enough to retard timing a lot.
Get a timing light on it and check for proper timing and smooth advance as the engine rpm increases. Your operators manual will tell you what rpm to use when setting timing,and what the timing should be at low or high idle. Some set timing at low idle and others set at high idle with the advance fully in.
