help car wont start

[shaness12]

so I bought this s12 to build up to a road worthy state but...
theres no spark
coil pack looks cracked underneath and looks like has had water in it

the coil pack bracket is very rusty

I took the earth lead off next to it cleaned it and but still no go

any ideas does the bracket and the coil have to have a good connetion? i.e
coil pack earth through the bracket
