Wanted NOS or factory correct design with push on white insulation.
This is the wire that connects from to points to the coil.
Thank you

I think I have a reproduction, drop me a note if that works for you and I will send one over.

    I have some NOS but I need to check the color . I know I have (incorrect) green , but might have a white one. Be patient as I have them "stashed" away.

I have not seen an accurate repo,including that one.
Easiest way to spot a repo is the high gloss insulation used (silicone material). Second is the detail of the molded connector. The genuine part has a small "nub" on the elbow from manufacturing. Repo has no nub. The repo also has a very white molded end,and genuine has a slightly more off-white color.

You can dull down the shininess of the wire with fine steel wool .There is not much you can do about the mold nub however. I am still glad the repro one is available even though it is not 100%. We did without for decades .
