what sine wave type or shape would be viewed on a osiliscope on a car alternator NOT useing the rectifying diodes,on a closed circit,and only useing one phase of the stator winding,i dont know the anser,because of the odd shaped field poles on the rotor,

You would see the same shape of sine wave (except for amplitude) as if you measured the AC from a wall socket.
The alternator produces three sinewaves seperated in time by 120 degrees... Since you are connecting to only a single phase you are only using one of the three sine waves.

using only the power of my mind....i would assume that the unrectified waveform of a car alternator would be something between a square wave and a sine wave....using only one of the stators...only the phase above or below the zero volt line would appear....n...n...n...n...n.....

You should see a sine wave (perhaps slightly distorted). That is the shape?

you dont know how to spell either at least use the spell check

I think it is peaks and valleys
