Unless the casing is cracked I'd take it to a starter/alternator repair shop. Regulator is a bolt on fix and readily available aftermarket. Got mine overhauled with new bearings for £60. No hauling at a pulley.
Make sure the bush on the housing for the main bolt is not seized before you put it back in. Alternator will lock up if you tighten the main bolt on it if seized
