Newbie on distributor

I went to start the engine today before Friday's launch. No start, and after cleaning the carburetor I looked for different issues.

I removed the distributor and noticed an electrical fire type smell. There was burning stains on the rotor, and pieces of what I now think to be the igniter at the base of the distributor.

Before I jump out and replace the parts, I thought it best to ask what the cause could be, and of course, the best way to fix this one.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
