Thanks Craig,
The schematic is not a real schematic as it does not show any of the
grounds. The field resister ends at the case of the LHDB switch, and
that is chassis ground. The text of the other link explains this.

As Rusty said, no, but if you can find the nipple that broke off:
find a drill bit that is snug in the nipple. note the size for
future use. Epoxy the nipple back on. after the epoxy has cured
fully (at least 24 hours) run the drill bit in by hand to see if it
goes through the epoxy joint.
If this is in fact a generator, it must produce current when spun.
If not, either the brushes are bad, the commutator is so dirty they
won't make contact, or you have an open winding.
The voltage regulator must be CLOSED with no voltage -- it opens to
prevent overcharging.
