Owain,

The design standard for Ford alternator, generator, and power steering 
(hint) shafts was 0.625 or 5/8" in the 60's - 70's period. That leaves 
the lathe work on the pulley to matching  offsets for alignment.  I ran 
a 4" power steering pulley on my alternator for about 30 years in those 
days, and never threw a belt.  If you can identify the common 
connections on the alternator, you should also be able to bring them 
outside the case and run a totally external regulator.  That 
alternator/regulator match and selection however, is definitely more in 
Theo's territory.
