Thanks for all the helpful comments. I've been in France and moving house so not able to get my chap (who looks after it) to fit the red rotor arm. Hope to address next week. Till then Moggie is getting used to her new garage!

Can we assume it was from the Dizzy Doc?

It really is so easy to find a distributor rotor that perhaps you do not have to wait. There are 2x spring clips holding on the distributor cap. Release the clips and lift the cap away. Then you can see the rotor. Simply pull this off. Fit the new rotor. It is keyed so it will only fit one way. Then refit the distributor cap and snap the spring clips back on. Again, the distributor cap can only go on properly one way.
