Default Help identifying generator mounts

Can someone help identify what these generator mounts go on? Both are 8BA type with similar cast in part numbers, but they are different.

8BA-10153C. This one has the alignment pin fairly close to the center of the bracket. It is also wider looking at it from the side. This one seems to be much more common.

8BA-10153. This one has the alignment pin close to the front edge. Overall the bracket is narrower looking at it from the side.

I restore generators and know them well. But still learning about the different mounts.

What is each one for?

Thanks

Pretty sure '48 -'53 truck/'49 car wide belt vs '50-'53 car narrow belt brackets.

The mount with the pin close to the center is the narrow belt location, while the one with the pin close to the front edge is for the wide belt.
