go take yours off and take it to a electrical company who re-ferbs alternators or fix it yourself.... Its not going to be hard...

I fitted my X14XE alternator to mt LET engine and only had to swap the pulley but you might as well get a single V one to start with. Really need an air gun to get it off though, makes it so much easier than trying to hold the pulley while you slacken the nut
