number 4 al is only good for 75 amps max ( at 90 c)per table 310.15(B)(6) , however, section 110.14©(1) limits it to a 75 c temp limit, thereby bringing it down to 65 amps. it's fed from a 200 amp c.b. off of the generator ?
 
as a side not to steverays comment, SE is commonly run down the house from the weather head to the meter can or a metered disconnect. at that point the neutral is bonded to the can, the gec then takes the 4 wire(via bonding) the 4 wire is required after the first point of disconnect. most power companies run 2 hots and a grounded conductor. we have to derive our ground with the grounded conductor (fdrom the power company) and the g.e. system
