Quote: What makes me think the paint on your distributor and clamp might be factory is that the oil sender has no paint on it and it's pretty well known that they were added after paint, if the clamp was painted later on in it's life your oil sender would have almost certainly been sprayed as well.
I wish I still had the one I noted it on, it was a very unmolested car and you could see where the paint had "fogged" the distributor and petered out about a 1/3 of the way up.
