I called them, they are now called BIRD HAVEN, they have no idea when they will have them available.. The tel #is 515-674-3949.
I believe the problem with the cutout was that the power wire shorted against the can. The insulators were really flattened out. I was able to free up the points using a propane torch and then dressed the points with sand paper. I replaced the insulators and installed the cutout back on the generator and started the car and the amp meter shows the gen is charging. I will keep a close eye on it....
