Got the new eBay stator in. Aaaaaaaaaand one of the wires isn't soldered down.
By looking at other pics it looks like it should be soldered where the coil to the right is anchored. On my OEM stator the white wire dives down somewhere I can't see to tell if it's soldered in. And the loose wire doesn't seem long enough to reach, anyhow. Maybe that's why it's not connected...
I emailed the eBay seller for their input. I will wait to hear back from them before I try to force it over to the apparent solder point.
