Are there two different distributors?

Posted by Farmer Dan on December 07, 2006 at 22:09:33 [URL] [DELETE] :

The distributor Bob sent me (I'll call it A) is a little different than the distributor that is on my 9N (call it B). Notice the red circle around that bulge, it goes all the way around the base. B is flat. The blue circle's are where there should be two breathers or drains. A has the place for them but they are blank. B has a circle with the number 3 cast into the back of it and no part number. A has a circle with the number 2 and the part number 9N12131 cast into it. My 1942 Price guide does not show this part number and the 1946 parts manual shows the base part number as 9N12139.

Is this something I need to worry about or should I just cross my fingers and hope she runs when I put it on?
