Now that I look at what I wrote, I think I've only done that job on the 300E, so I can't swear to the alternator on the diesel being in the same place, but it probably is---besides the obviously different stuff like the fuel injection system, ignition system (or lack thereof), and turbo (ditto), most everything under the hood is in more or less the same place on the OM603 and M103 cars.
