I was able to pull the alternator off of the car this evening. A small piece of metal fell out when I pulled the pulley off. The 1st picture is the area where I think the metal broke from and the 2nd pic is off that area and the small piece of metal.
Can anyone confirm that piece of metal should go where I think it does? If so, if this broke would this cause the the bolt to un-thread? I would imagine this would be the cause of my why my bolt un-threaded in the first place.
Second question is in the 3rd pic below does that look like the correct assembly for the pulley? Right is bottom working left?
Thanks is advance.
