[Healeys] Distributor on the 100 engine

The drive shaft is pinned to the distributer and as I recall is a gear drive
off the cam. So there is no thrust washer or slot drive retaining plate (as
on the 6) and the dist. should go all the way down to dist body/block
interface. The clamp plate is flush with block under the bolt heads and
raised around the dist. body.. I think that's correct..

Looks like it's not all the way into the 180 degree offset slot. Yeah, I 
know, simply state the obvious.
