Get it rebuilt before you burn it up.

A low battery can cause a generator or an alternator to get very hot. Try putting a battery charger on the battery for a while.

Question #1. Is the charging system working? Question #2. If it is working, what is the rate of charge?? should only be 2-3 amps unless you are running the lights. More than 2-3 amps of charge will create more heat. Question #3. How hot is it?? Just because you can't hold your hand on it doesn't automatically mean there is a problem, especially if the charging rate is correct. I suppose the rear bushing could be failing.

Is it making any scary noises? What's your system voltage? Put a voltmeter on it... I don't know all the variations that would've shown up on the D19, but if there's a mechanical regulator on it, and the regulation armature contact is stuck, it might be running full field current, thus... full voltage... but you'd probably experience other very uncomfortable symptoms soon...

Ten Amendments, Ten Commandments, and one Golden Rule solve most every problem. Citrus hand-cleaner with Pumice does the rest.
