Question Distributor question with pics

I have this old Mallory Dual point dist. I can find the cap in the catalog and nothing else. I would replace it with an electronic unit but it has been very reliable and trouble free. Can anyone identify the true model of dist this is? It has a number on it C-346 and thats it.

Here are the pictures:

It's hard to tell from the bottom photo but does the cam that opens the points have four lobes?
If so, it's the Mallory "Double Life" model, so called because each set of points only worked on every other cycle, in theory, doubling their life.

Thanks John. It does only have 4 lobes on it. Been pretty reliable distributor, haven't had to touch it for 3 seasons of skiing.
