Does the 1.5L use the same alternator assembly as the 2.0L?

[SHAKEmeBUNS]

Hi guys. Having trouble finding a part number for an alternator pulley. I went to the dealer and they, of course, tell me I have to purchase the ENTIRE ALTERNATOR with the pulley attached. They do however, sell the pulley for the 2.0 l engine but the computer says it's not compatible with the 1.5 l engine.
Are they the same? Is this just BS? I'm not replacing a $60 part with a $460 alternator!
Can anyone confirm they are the same?

What year?

You can always go on NAPAonline.com and put in the YMM for your bronco and change the engines and see if the part number changes.

If you don’t have an answer by Monday, I’ll do some digging for you.

Advance Auto Parts is the ONLY place I found in writing what an exact replacement is. It's made by Litens part# 920123 920123A or 920123k. Must be delivered to home as the have shut down 700 stores.
I got it on Amazon with a new serpentine belt for $75

What an embarrassment for Ford that they won't release a replacement part number just to force you to buy the entire alternator.
I feel bad for non mechanically inclined folk who are duped out of an extra $400 + labor

This was for 2022 outer banks 1.5L for anyone else with the same issue.

Rock Auto has the same Litens part for $44

The pulleys for the 1.5L and the 2.0L are not the same. They are both 52mm outside diameter, however the pulley for the 1.5L is wider.

That's awesome. I got it done today, took a bunch of pics too. I'll be posting it in a new thread soon...
