Default 95 Civic/00 engine swap - Best distributor?

Hello... the mechanic tells me I need to replace the distributor for the car. My engine is from a Year 2000, (has a different ECM and everything. Unless they took that and I didn't notice. The disconnected 1995 one, and the year 2000 one. ABS light always on. Anyways...) Is there a "best" distributor to buy?

What engine, FFS? Ok.. You know what? I don't know. All I know is "Year 2000." My car is a 1995 Civic. The trim of it really is EX, if all the options are any indication. The previous seller told me "The engine is from a year 2000 and had only about 79,000 miles on it." That is all I know. As to the "FFS" part.

Now, let's get to the productive part: Tell me where I can see the "Engine code," as to where it would be, if I were to be looking at the engine, even to crawl under the car.. and I will report back that information.

I kind of want to know what engine I actually have, too. So please help me get the info, so that we can proceed.

And I really do know minimal/not a lot about Hondas, so. Take it easy there. I will pass along the letters and numbers I see. Then I will know. Then I can read. Then I can learn. So, let's get there.

Thank you.
*it is an automatic transmission.

the stamp will be on the block right by the trans, see the pic I attached.






Well ppl swap all sorts of engines around so by saying it's an "ex" does nothing, for all I know you have a b20 which never came in a civic or integra obviously.
