Thanks Marc, Richard and Lynn for your prompt replies. Marc that site does not mention the English Ford Pilot anywhere at all but thanks anyway.
Richard I think you are right. It is probably a Lucas. The only number I have found is in the cap. FO-420. Lynn, I'll try Trademe.NZ any assistance will be welcome. I have attached a photo taken from a current Ebay listing. ( Ebay No.170578136066) It is not clear but shows that the distributor is about 4 inchs deep not 2 inches like the USA Crab type. Thank Rick.

The Lucas distributor is recognisable by the securing screws, which go through slotted lugs, allowing timing adjustment by moving whole body, unlike the US distributors. The number from your cap does not look like a Lucas marking, but could be from a pattern cap of another maker.

Thanks for the offer Lynn. It looks like I might have found a set in Melbourne. Won't know until next week. I'll keep you posted.
