The judging guide states that a daub of colored paint is on the distributor housing, just below the cap, facing the passenger front wheel. I would like to know how far below the cap this is. A picture would be great!
Mike,
You are expecting too much. I would bet there was a person with a brush, and a can of paint who just touched lightly the distributor. There were no specifications for size or location, I am sure. Just don't get the paint on the distributor cap and you will be fine.
Mike -- here's an example on a mid 1968 model (8B26 1111296) [the top distrib in pic; ignore bottom one which is a service unit].
Just a dab of a brush, as Terry says; no attempt to make it circular. Even the GM engineering dwg. for 1111240 just says "white paint spot for identification" [per Colvin book].
