Default Starting Problem

So the past few days ive had trouble starting my car. It will just turn and turn and turn but sometimes it doesnt turn over. Most of the time it turns over and im off. But right now i cant get it started at all what could it be? fuel is fine pretty sure spark is there not entirely sure on how to check i only have myself so . could it be starter solenoid? or perhaps the starter? maybe a new battery? and i actually took a look at my distributer cap and i took off the middle cable and there is a hole in the middle ill post a picture im pretty sure its not supposed to be there
