The back side of the pulley side is a slip-fit threaded insert that clamps down on the mount when tightened. Loosen the pulley bolt 1/8-1/4 inch, then give it a few good thwacks with a hammer. Use a metal hammer, not a dead-blow or soft mallet. It needs the impulse from a metal hammer to move. You want hard enough of a tap to move the insert back, but not so hard of a tap to dent/mushroom the bolt. It'll open up the gap and free the alternator.
