Default how to identify engine for parts

Hello,
I have a fairbanks 1 1\2hp Z, I know it is hit & miss not throttle governed because it has no spark plug on head.
It is missing the ignitor and magnito.
How do I go about identifying which ignitor and magnito that I need for this engine? Also it has spoke flywheels not pans.
