Okay guys, here is the update. I am now extremely confused. Also I don't know if it is the original alternator for that car, but the literally last week did the 6 digit rollover to 200K
So the new voltage regulator arrived today. It looks like this.
This is what the back of my alternator looks like.
On another thread. Here.

EDIT: For more info
