Man you have all the luck don't you!

If your ignitor is getting everything it needs but no spark it might have gone bad.  I have had one go bad spontaneously, one other I fried with welding.  SO yes they can go bad.

Other things to check are the pick up coil in the distributor and those pick up wires, I have had those get crusty enough to not work.  It sounds like you eliminated those already though.

Want me to see if I have an ignitor for you in the shed?
Post up a photo of the style you have.
