Your dial face is prettier if swappable but can you not just add the missing lead to your unit?

I WAS looking at that Pete, but I just spent 150.00 with the shipping for this unit. Not sure if I wanted to fork out another chunk for that mess. I messaged the seller and was told they would take care of a replacement for me IF I could find one. So that was nice of them.

I don't know bunk about these potentiometers. A rude fella from Facebook noted he didn't know 'SHEET' about these and he was on one of those vintage race equipment buy and sell sites. He did say find a part number on it, which there is -1377215. After closely looking at the potentiometer I don't even know if it really is a two wire or three wire. Only one wire is still on it. Your EBAY link, was showing there were two wires on that dial, that made me ASSUME there were only two, so who knows. You mentioned the white caulk...I saw another control dial that had the very same caulk, I believe that's from Mallory itself. I pulled the white caulk off mine to look closer, but before I did I noticed the impression made by the missing wire and the broken tab...that alone made me think it's just TWO wires there.

It would be nice if I could find the parts breakdown for this piece or ANYONE with experience one them.

Been searching much of the day using the number on it with no luck at all.
