Default Points distributor question (400)

Hello,

My dad passed down his F250 truck from 1970 that just happens to have a pontiac 400 in it. He did not put it in there and believes it's out of a 68 firebird.

I'm having trouble getting the thing to start. Checked that it's getting plenty of gas from the 4 bbl carb, and I've tested the old coil (seemed to be good), but replaced it for good measure and still can't get the engine to come to life.

What I want to do next is try and identify what year/model distributor I have on there so that I can troubleshoot it a little better.

Can anyone help identify?

Here's pictures of the distributor:
