Looks like a standard distributor with an aftermarket conversion to replace the points with an electronic pickup.
If you pull the rotor arm off, the grey bit below will probably just pull off -revealing the shaft with the lobe on it. The other bit should just unscrew and a new set of points and condenser can then be fitted. IF they haven’t modified or lost any original bits.

All gone I am afraid working on it now just dies again when it's hot replaced coil pump and carb now has blackish smoke which it never had thanks for your advice though
 
I haven't gone back to points I thought this unit was faulty so bought another one which turned out to be wrong the trigger switch on the pictured one has thecmagnet built into the rotar arm the one I bought comes with a separate trigger but if course now you can't put the rotary cap back on so out if desperation I cut the magnet off the old rotar arm put the 2 together and yes it started but again died after heating up? I did have a very hot coil but I upgraded it and now it seems to be fine . I think I am getting a weak spark to be honest as I have run out of options now someone told me these engines are simple I have had minis ,VWs and Mgs this is the only bone that is frustrating the hell out of me lol
