voltage regulator

Hi,my favorite '39 baby Packard is back.
Engine running fine after all the work I did on it, but had a small leak and a dead battery.
Fixed the leak no problem and changed out the battery for a new 6v one.
Car is wired 6volt positive ground at this time. Was 12v a while back, but was returned to normal.
Anyway, the battery is not being charged. Took the generator off and took it to my local shop for testing. It's working great.
Wiring is all good, so I'm thinking bad regulator.
Now comes the fun.
Not sure if the genny is a stock unit. It's a Delco part#
1100042, which seems to be a 6v gen. My problem is finding a 6 volt positive ground regulator that will work with this system. Of course the one that's on there has no identifying numbers or stickers(altough it's stamped "6vpos grd" on the bottom.
Anyone have a knowledgeble source who can point me in the right direction?
