Distributor Cap and Rotor Arm

Is there a service interval for replacing the Distributor Cap and Rotor Arm on a 2.9 12V Scorpio?
I'm going through the service schedule and taken off the cap and arm. Not really sure how to tell if they need replacing. There is some silver/grey residue on both the tip of the Arm and also on the contact points inside the Cap.
Been quoted £19.36 and £8.72 +VAT by local Ford dealer for parts but don't want to change unless necessary.
Thanks.
