Yes, if you remove any type 3 generator you will find a hole facing up at you 
from the saddle in the fan housing where the generator lay. On the underside of 
the generator is a matching hole thru which cooling air for the generator 
passes.  

If you have a beetle generator (it will have a shaft coming out EACH end) in 
your type 3, you can make it work, but it won't last, because it lacks the air 
ventilation hole.
