Question about Mole Tweenie Wiring

Let me begin by stating that this might be a dumb question but I am a novice when it comes to electrical wiring so I figure better to be safe than sorry. I recently purchased a used Mole Richardson Tweenie II and, since it is second hand, I wanted to make sure all the wiring was correct before I started using it. It seems simple enough with the neutral and hot wires connected to the yellow neutral and hot leads from the socket (via the white wire nuts) and the ground wire connecting to the metal trough, but I know that in Arri frenels the ground wire typically has multiple points of contact with the interior of the light. I couldn’t find any good reference pictures on the Internet to verify if this is just how the Mole Tweenies are wired so I figured, since this is a used light, I would ask for a second opinion from someone who probably knows better than me. I have added some pictures and just wanted to say thank you in advance for any help, it is greatly appreciated!

Yes, that wiring is correct. There's not much going on inside tungsten lights. Power and ground, and usually a switch on the cable. The ground only touches one part because the entire fixture is metal. There's no plastic-metal interfaces that isolate any metal parts from each other.
