Default Bracket under ac compressor

I have a 1994 Cherokee (auto, 4.0). Today after a long trip my belt broke luckily 4 blocks from my house. After an investigation I found that the pulley which the passenger side cooling fan mounts to (It`s actually built into the ac compressor bracket) had frozen up. The fan/clutch are fine. What is this thing even called if it has a name? Is this pulley/shaft replaceable or will I need to get a whole different ac compressor bracket at the junkyard? Thanks

I have one in the garage. I will check it to see if the pulley is replacable and let you know.

They pulley bearing is pressed in and appears to not be replacable.

O'Reillys does not show a replacement option so it looks like a junkyard trip is in order. Make sure not to get the mount off of a Renix motor as the compressor mounts differently as pictured.

Thank you ever so much for the information and the nice photos. I`ll go raid the junkyard and see what I can find. I took mine apart already so I know what tools I need to take to make it go smoother.
