Look for the frame number on the motor nameplate. Get a motor with
the same frame number and the mounting should be the same.

That's not going to have a NEMA frame; it's a vendor-specific mount for
the purpose. He'll probably have to adapt something if can't find the
OEM replacement.

I have to disagree. I replaced mine a couple months ago.
As I recall it was identified by frame size and it wasn't
vendor specific. Many of them are interchangeable. In my
case I had a Rheem AC and replaced a fancy ECM motor with
a basic split phase. Both had identical mounting studs, with
nuts that go on from the top of the fan housing.

I suppose I stand corrected... I guess should've figured there are
standardized mounting configurations for those as well given the volume
produced, although seems like I never can find anything that fits
whatever it is that _I_ have...
