Which Regulator

I'm ordering some parts from VB and one item I have to get is the internal voltage regulator for my altnernator. I'm having trouble figuring which to get from VB, there are two. Part 8-527 says 23716 and 8-532 says 23804 and 23748. My alternator has the number 23750 stamped on it, and is a 16ACR model. The regulator has two wires (one green one yellow) on it, but no markings. I know that other regulators have different numbers of wires, so I want to make sure I get the correct one. Does anyone know which is which, or which it is that I need?

Thanks - Tim.
 
Moss also has two regulators listed.

130-280 for 23716 and 130-290 for L23804 and 23748. Basically the same story. If anyone has bought a regulator before it would be a big help, there is virtually no information about these regulators on the internet. (that I can find)
 
I have found that either Moss or VB are helpful in cases like this and will advise you on the right one if you give them a call and give them a description of what you have!
