I got a starter solenoid from Moss a couple months ago.  They have two kinds,
"replacement" and "excellent reproduction."  I got the "excellent reproduction" 
and
I'm happy with it ... it has an extra spade terminal than can be easily removed 
but is 
otherwise pretty close to original.

The "replacement" type fits, but looks nothing like the original (and doesn't 
have the
manual starter button).
