It should have had electronic ignition originally. So if you have got points then the distributor has been changed so you could have anything a picture would help
009 is a an all centrifugal advance without any vacuum advance.
034 is a points centrifugal and single vacuum advance distributor the points should be the same as a for the 009 unless it came off a pre 1971 engine.
Pinto Bosch distributors used the same points but the opposite hand so some people call them Pinto points.
