Thanks for the info, guys.

Best I can tell from the pic, it's the Delco unit--it has the round cap and doesn't look like the mags on my other tractors.

I followed the Petronics link, but the site doesn't admit to having a set for the application.  I hadn't considered changing it, but I would consider it if a unit were available.  I can keep the original guts for shows or whatever, if necessary.  Not planning to show it:  I need to use it.
