Blue box and the canister above it look like aftermarket cruise. These often came with either a replacement turn signal stalk or a little panel that screws to the dash (possibly others).
On the duraspark, the unplugged is C321 and the plugged one is C323.
If the dist is a 1 wire now the other end of C323 is likely unplugged near the dist or tucked near the drivers side valve cover. Could also be cut off... This would be C322.
This would also impact your tach if present.
