I was able to clean up the end plate and get a better look. There is a felt seal pressed in after the bushing. it looks like there is a plastic piece between the seal and the welch plug. I haven't found a parts diagrams that show any of these details.
There is a starter shop about 45 minutes away. I was going to give them a call and see if they can offer any insight and or parts. I'll probably just replace the coil to get it charging again and put it back together.
