Thanks Papa and WW. For the record, 10mm female driver and 17mm male driver are the two contact points for the opposing force. Exactly what I needed.
I may see if the lowes right near the advance from which I already ordered the OAD has some of those parts in stock. As for the tool that's included with the pulley, it looks to just be a solid 17mm drive slug (i.e. not hollow). I noticed that some of the OAD manufacturers demonstrate a method of cracking open the alternator and holding the stator in a vice so as to not need the extra tools.....yeahnothanks. I'd rather spend the extra few dollars than have to disassemble that particular component.
..now as long as the clutch the rebuilt alternator came with has the same dimensions
Worst case I buy a set of tools from ID which are about 1/3 the cost of the gates kit
