[Ducati] ignition pickup 93 900ss

Hi Guerin,
My friend just replaced one of his ignition pickup coils on a similar
vintage SS. He got one from Australia. Not sure where, maybe vee-two?

Cheers
Bruce

Alright, I have an open circuit on one of my ignition pickups.

I pulled both loose, and they look ok. The wire's pretty oil-soaked  
(no kidding) but they look okay. I've seen a few distributor pickup  
fail (bad wires) from the constant movement of ignition advance, but  
strike me as still functioning.

So, does anyone have any experience with these failing?
A) Could it be in the wire run(outside the cases)?
b) The pickup is just a magnet, right? It doesn't look like there's  
much that could go wrong there. Or is there?
C) Any tips on running the wire on replacements?

And:
Any one have a source for these that may be in stock?
Same for left side gasket cover and the rubber boot for the clutch  
shaft...

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
