Alternator from EG - Will it fit? (D-Series)

I'm finding conflicting information.. mostly because there is a lot of b-series tech info on my searches.

Will an alternator from an EG fit an EF? Yes/No.

the EF alternator uses a 3 rib belt and the EG uses a 4 rib belt - it will physically fit though

EG Civic D alternator as stated above 4 rib and EF 3 rib. EF uses roung plug, EG uses square I believe. I believe the tensioning being lil different as well far as spacing, because I know our alternator kit only works for the EF D alt.
