As for timing pieces, he should have a single row upper chain. My suggestion would be to buy new since the tensioners are known to wear and everything can be had for under 200 bucks.
And for the record the GTI never had a distributor set-up. Only the Corrado and Passat (1994 and older)
thanks for ur input.
