Further inspection revealed that the washer is there. I pushed the snap ring
on firmly with a suitably-sized socket.

 I did find the following in a news group (rec.autos.makers.vw.aircooled),

rebuilt from a well known vendor and received a dizzy with the numbers
311 905 205T/0 231 167 014. The number 311 is NOT a transposition. My
question is if the dizzy I was sent is in fact the correct one for my
car. Thanks for any input. Jack"
