Dissected roasted alternator with labeled rotor, stator, rectifier and blown diode

This is what happens when an alternator is run at max. output for too long. It can also happen simply due to age, which is why I suspect this one died. It came from the JY, so there's no telling how many miles are on it. I assume the diode blew first, causing all the other damage.
