I see 2.363 in my third attachment - the 1929-1957 Parts Catalog Page:

2.363 BUSHING GASKET CLAMP, Distributor Mounting for 1955 and later 8 cylinder engines?

2.363 is not even shown in earlier Master Parts Catalog/Books (no 8 cylinder engines)?

As usual, Carl, I think I am in my own twilight zone on this topic.
I find it helps when I talk/mumble to myself a lot.

Also, I think this thread at-first was referring to the "make-up" of the "cup" that has the screw-on metal "cap".

I am referring to the spring and the tip that push against the distributor shaft. In particular, the makeup/composition of the "tip".
