Anyone know where to get the little plastic cover that sits below the Pickup coil on an HEI Distributor.  Mine is pretty brittle and has a small chip out of it.  Don't want to through the grease all around the distributor.  Where to get it or a common part number that I can give my 8 year old parts guy.  You all know the drill.  Also, should I be using any special kind of grease under that piece for the shaft, or just wheel grease?

Thanks

The gm part number you need is 1950569, an ac/delco part.  When I had to buy one the minimum order was 10, about a buck apiece.  The grease I was used was another delco part, distributor cam lubricant. Part U1901
, 12338672, excellent stuff even if it's in a small 3 oz. tube a little pricey.  Last time we tried to get some it wasn't available.  Although I can still see it available on the web.

Hope this helps.
