Sounds like power pack .Regardless of that it seems by description of condition it will need replacing assuming rest of motor assy is in tact.

Don't have a clue what dealer locally can get it for you as I am in Texas , however there are several outboard links to obtain parts online.type keyword chrysler outboard parts or chrysler outboard powerpacks. good luck with motor

yes .Don't hold me to it but i think it's short for coil distribution box.Thats what power pack does.delivers to ignition coils.
