As gene said, give it a good clean. Make sure the commutator and brushes are completely free of oil. Do not use anything which will score the surface of the commutator segments or the brush faces.
As to fitting an alternator, I personally would never do it. I could not bring myself to look at the thing on one of my tractors, and my Farmall M is a daily workhorse. When the starter motor does not want to get it going, my 70 year old mother can crank start the M. Moreover, a properly looked after generator will give years and years of service. Yours is unlikely to have suffered any damage. A clean will make it work just fine.
