You seem to have two unrelated questions here. The first is about voltage regulators.
There are many different configurations of regulators, Some have 3 connections, some 4 and some 5. There are numerous mounting configurations and dimensions. 6, 12 and 24 volt regulators all look identical. Are you trying to identify a particular regulator you have?? Second is about distributors: Specific distributors cannot be identified by appearance, there are many differences that cannot be seen. Again, are you trying to ID a particular one you have that is missing the ID tag??

My mistake as I was just quite literally rushing out the door. I meant to post the data about regulators and have corrected my original post thanks to Fred's pointing out the error.

Delco in these years have 2 mounting holes on one short side and one on the other
A/L has 2 mounting holes on a long side and one on the other

Thank you, Fred! That's exactly what I wanted to know! Which ones had a single terminal at the top (Field, I think) with the other two at the bottom? I seem to recall that my 1953 Patrician was that way and the wiring harness was such that the wires wouldn't have reached had they all been on the same side.

The parts book does not specify the amperage for a few of them. Is that information available too?

If not given in parts books, you might be able to find it in the specs pages. Some but not all years have some max rating info. Here is the 54 and 56 as listed in the service counselors as an example.
