Yes the rear sump pan has the stick in it. If you only have accwss to a cover with the tube in it its very easy to just tap the dipstick hole and plug it. The duraspark should be fine I have one in my 69 429.

Go with the timing cover without the dipstick, a front dipstick wont do any good on a rear sump pan. My 460 has an oversized off road rear sump pan but I already had a cover with a dipstick I just plugged it off.
I don’t think the distributor is interchangeable however if you want a used distributor try to find one from a 429 police interceptor this # will be stamped in the housing of the distributor D2Af-NA or D2AF-NC good luck.

You can buy new covers, with or without fuel pump port, for $75.
