Default 1st gen alternator on a 2nd gen

Title. My alternator on my 98 LS just went out, I know someone parting out a 94 LS that has a working alternator and it would be cheaper than buying a remanufactured one. Does anyone happen to know if one off a first gen would fit mine?

I think the connectors are different: 1994 is round and 1998 more rectangular.

Also...earlier models may be lower amperage...

Go with 2001-2003 LS430 130A Alternator.

Could be different pin outs to the connector? Are the part numbers the same?
