Actually the ignition module is not in the distributer. You are looking at the stator or pick-up coil. If you want to replace that, you have to remove the shaft out of the distributer. It is necessary to remove the distributer, use a small punch to knock the roll pin holding the drive gear on the bottom of the shaft off, and use a special tool, that should be available at your local autoparts store through through loaner tool program, to press the gear off of the shaft. Then you work the shaft out of the distributer. If it is stubborn, you some carburetor cleaner to break the carbon loose. After the shaft is out, you can replace the stator. During reassembly again, another special tool will be needed to press the gear back on. If you cant get the special tools I mentioned, you might be able to carry the distributer to a repair shop, or a machine shop, and get them to press the gear on and off for you.

If I understand correctly, the Ignition Control Module is located inside of the distributor. To replace it remove the distributor cap, which is locted in the center rear of the engine compartment. If there is adequate room, leave the spark plug and coil wires attached. Set the cap aside and look for a wiring harnes on the bottom of the distributor. I should be attached to a small flat black module that has two small bolts holding it in place. Carefully remove the small bolts, and unplug the harness and remove the Ignition Control Module. Replace and assemble in reverse order. Make sure to get the distributor cap on the same way and do not rotate the distributor during the process.
