I don't have one specific to a Cub or I'd share it, but you need to get a wiring diagram. Most of your wire will be black, but IH used different colors for the wires in the long harness that runs from the regulator back to your ammeter and switches. (The IH diagram for my SuperC lists a natural color with green tracers, for example, and another one natural with red and black tracers, so you can keep track of which is which at the different ends), but you'll need a diagram to tell you where the ends hook up.
From your description it's a safe bet that the split black wire is for yout head lights. In all likelihood, the thinner black wire, if there's any length to it, carries the current to your coil or, in the case of a magneto, runs back tothe switch to ground it out. If it's a short wire, it's more likely a jumper from the generator to the regulator.
Are the three colored wires all in one harness? IF so, this would be the hookup from the regulator to the ammeter and switches. Since these probably aren't the original colors you you'll have to do like mkirsch suggested, which is hook them up on the regulator end in the way that fits best and then, using a diagram and following your colors, hook them up at the back end to where they belong.
I'll look around and see if I can find a link to one of the Cub sites and post you a link to a diaagram if I can find one.
