I looked for one of these a while ago and for such a common part (back in the day) they are surprisingly difficult to find. I suspect they are thrown away still attached to the dynamo when people "upgrade" to an alternator.

Do you need both the fan and the pulley? One option is to find a cheap, second-hand dynamo with the fan and pulley still attached. The pulley can be very stubborn to remove but it will come off with a 3-legged bearing puller (but make sure the puller legs are behind the pulley not in the pulley or you will tear it apart). Then you have a dynamo to rebuild as a spare as well.

PS I tried a modern solid dynamo pulley and it was not a success as it did not line up properly with the other pulleys so you are right to look for an original.

I have at least 4 spare dynamos but only one spare pulley so I can't help on this occasion.

Last time I was at Morris Minor workshop they had a pile of dynamos with pulleys attached waiting to be harvested for spares or rebuilt. I see ESM are out of stock of the pulleys, probably because they are in that rusty pile!

See the thread 1098 sump gasket set in for sale. Chap is selling the original dynamo, maybe with fan and pulley.
