    OK, seller replied. He said that the other driver coil is not used for ignition purposes…It is for a AC lighting coil, which makes some sense. Plus, I can see the two terminal ends from this coil coming out of the wiring harness…I am used to see only double wound alternator windings or AC lighting coils, but this mag plate would not accept that piece. So, this was some sort of accessory for overseas engines….
    Makes sense now, I just assumed that other coil was used for ignition….
    But again, this item seems a bit over priced…Unless it is in absolutely perfect condition….
