Hello thingstodo,

I think all of the ones pictured in that ad are plain ordinary alternators. The eAssist one has a smooth outer housing rather than a vented-looking one. A lot of the Ebay listings have something like "...3 6L..." in the description string, which looks suspiciously like 3.6L, which is the larger non-eAssist engine option in the LaCrosse. Searching for a 2013 LaCrosse leather sedan with 2.4L engine gave me a result showing a brand new eAssist generator/starter for $300.

Beware poor cross-listings. Human and/or bot error does crop up often.
