Perhaps a bit late now (though simple grooves in the posts shouldn't be a problem if they are small), but often it's necessary to make a simple shim to secure the rotor snugly to the shaft. I've used aluminum foil for that.

Can't help you with new cap, I know they're around and I saw a couple at Hershey yesterday, but I've also heard that the mold and tooling for the repros has been lost or damaged. One of the ones I saw yesterday was at the Max Merritt booth.

Just as an aside, it's a bit disconcerting to see that repro and NORS parts and that have been available and that we assumed would be available indefinately to replace OEM parts that were NLA, are themselves beginning to become NLA. So if the car is a keeper and you see it NOW, don't assume it will be available at some point inthe future.
