Holley distributor help

Ive got a Holley billet distributor for my motor, but It needs a new cap. Trouble is, I cant find any part number on it or nothing on the web which suggests Holley even make distributors anymore? Are they re-branded as another make?

Nobody knows whether Holley still makes distributors?

There's two sizes of HEI cap, large with the coil in it, and small with a separate coil. Probably any manufacturer's small cap will fit that distributor.

Wrong towers and no window for a points cap.
