4.2 distributor series 3 xj6 for Etype

Might have answered my own question but see if I’m right
Till my 123 comes i need a simple back up for all three 4.3 cars
Here is a series 3 electronic that bolts right in but sits 180 out on the rotor
It’s been open before so I think if I remove the cerclip and rotate the shaft it would be good?
Looks like some one did it in reverse
Make sense?

I would think you’d have to drive out that pin in photo two to reposition the shaft & dog (and the rotor).

But since it is just a temporary set-up why not place the wires 180° out to match the distributor;s orientation?
