Larry -
That's a junction on the radiator yoke. Not a fuse block.
Completely unrelated to the tail lights.
If you had a grounding problem it would be back by the
taillight socket. Take a jumper wire and clip the socket with one end and a bare
metal area of the body. Turn headlights on. Does it light ? Verify that your
bulbs are not burned out and are the two filiment type.
Two wires: black and dark green. Your concern is the black
wire. Check the black wire connectors to see that contact is being made. You
need to trace the black wire back to the headlight switch, which includes the
ten-way connector that joins the main harness to the rear harness. Let us
know.

frame, although it doesn't have actual fuses. Maybe that is the
place to start checking for a grounding problem? Odd that the tail light
turn signals work but the stop light and tail lights do not. I would think
that the turn signal and the stop light bulb are using the same filament in the
bulb, while the tail light uses the other filament?

lights. These old cars didn't have a fuse box. There is one fuse attached to the
light switch, but I think that is just for the headlights. Best practice is to
start checking things out at the end of the circuit: Bulbs, connectors -
including proper grounds, wiring, and work your way back to the headlight
switch. A common problem is the dimmer part of the switch, but that should just
affect the instrument panel & interior lights. Bad grounds is another common
problem.
