My 1967 55HP Chrysler has an alternator badge on the engine cover. Is it lying to me?

It's not an alternator like you see on a car.It's under the flywheel.Most call it a stator.J

The stator is an alternator and the two yellow wires coming out and going to the rectifier are for its output.

That square red finned thing is a senelium rectifier. It is unregulated, so check your battery water level often.

That engine is surprisingly clean for its age.
