Had the EXACT thing happen with my last rebuilt alternator. Mind had an ULTRA FUN twist though. the screw came out, put stress on the pulley, and loosened the main nut on the alternator shaft. Somehow it wiggled around so much it LOCKED tight onto the shaft, and even a 700 ft lb impact and a oxy torch couldn't remove it. It basically mated permanently with my volvo pulley.
