Item 25 on the drawing, it seems to fit into the flywheel mag stator.

Just a suggestion it is most unlikely that plug was specific for Royal Enfield. Try widening your internet search to just the era and specification of the plug, leaving out Royal Enfield.

(You may end up with a boxful of various three round pun plugs)

I suspect that will be a Villiers part but the only ones I've seen have been 2 pin.

If you can't find an original plug, is there something more recent here which you could adapt?
