Mercury Model 60 - Breaker Points Selection

My winter project this year is a 1965 Mercury Model 60. Serial Number: 1793503

Found it laying in the bottom of an old aluminum boat. It was seized, but now turns. There is no spark so I pulled the flywheel off and found the breakers points were miss adjusted and didn't even open. I pulled the points and they are not that bad, but since I'm in this deep I might as well change them. The problem is the parts listed on this site appear different than the ones I pulled. Maybe someone installed a different type.

Other than this site, what is a reputable site that I can use to verify the correct part number?
 
Laing's Outboards in the Buffalo NY area has many, many vintage engine parts for Merc's, OMC's etc and they mail order to the US/Canada (for sure, I have ordered many times from Canada) so assume they would ship anywhere.

Here's the link: http://www.laingsoutboards.com/
