The attached diagram is from the net also, and suggests a short piece of wire is needed with the condenser grounded to the firewall, etc. or attached to the coil bracket. Is that correct ?

Actually most condensers have the mounting bracket connected to its body, no extra wire usually needed. So about any quality condenser with the mounting tab and point attachment wire/pigtail can be mounted to the coil.
With the poor quality of points and condensers today I think its a good to pay and hope you get one ones. I keep a known good one attached to the coil bracket but left disconnected until needed.
Auto condensers/capacitors have a microfarad range from .2-.3 with most being in the .25-.28 range. So excessive pitting doesn't happen very often
I recently went thru a bad condenser situation. 5 new 'burn-proof' condensers were junk. So the car now has 2 old known good ones in it.
