Default Opti cap question

Anyone happen to know if the cap & rotor from the "low" priced optis available will fit the OEM AC Delcos.
I need to change my water pump & I'll look at the opti while I'm there. My first choice would be to keep the original opti - but change the cap and rotor. However if the bearing in the opti is shot, then I'll change the whole unit out. At Corvette Central, a cap & rotor kit is the same price as a whole opti, so I was thinking of buying the whole opti & just using the cap & rotor from it if that was all I needed.
Thanks and

I have new GM/Delco Non-vented Cap & rotors if interested.
I'm not sure about the fitment on the low priced ones.
