"You should have a very flexible cloth covered wire between the outside terminal and the points and condenser wire screw. Will look something like one of these only probably be black."

That is not the case on 48-54 autolite distributors, the whole housing turns, so there is no flex needed so that the breaker plate can turn to advance. There is a little tab with a screw on the outside of the distributor that the wire connects to, and it is a solid connection inside to where the points/condensor connect to.
