Well, after removing some of the wax it looks like I have no choice but to rewind.

I got the direction of the turns, now I need to get the number of turns to the center tap.
Counting the turns is pain even with an optivisor, loupe, and pointer.

Woohoo, I just found an easier way to count the turns on this coil. I took a photo of it with my phone.
It looks like 16 turns to the center tap. Maybe 32 turns total. That's doable.
