To me they are both parts that have been rebuilt, one way or another. They end up being made new again and fit to reuse. Thats my view.

Repairing is just that: you take a bad alternator that has a faulty regulator and fix only the regulator.

Rebuilding is replacing many parts on it that may fail later du to age. Ex.: bearings, brushes etc...
