OK, well that stator sure seems out of whack…But, the flywheel would never fit over it if the stator was that far out of center.

That stator is really three separate windings encased in potting.   The two styles of mag plates can be interchanged.  The “charge coil” is actually an ignition component that develops several hundred volts AC to charge up the capacitor in the powerpack.  The “sensor coil” is another ignition component that “triggers” the powerpack to release stored voltage to the coils.   The alternator windings provide AC voltage that is rectified externally to help charge the battery.
