Isn't that the ground? It should just screw back in.

Yes, but the bolt is broken and the hole is not threaded. I cant just screw new bolt in to hole. If there is a nut inside a shell, it is missing...

Edit: Now I understand. There should be bolt from inside to out. And that bolt is broken. Is it possible to open magneto to add new bolt?

It's already broken so you can't break it. There are lots around if you can't fix it.

Yep, its already broken: I think all Judson magnetos dont look like this inside. Looks like someone has put an ordinary coil inside Judson shell. Nice.
