If he is working with a standard Delco 10SI or 12SI, what you just stated will not work. The alternator needs exciter/field current hooked to #1 terminal - and without it, it will not charge.
I see your diagrams - but unless I'm missing something, you are referring to an alternator that has a self-exciting regulator installed into it. I've worked on many diesels that do indeed need switched field current. Being diesel or gas has nothing to do with it.
