B737ng generator failure abnormal checklist

Hello everyone, my question relates to the proper abnormal checklist to call in the event of a generator failure. Let me offer you the following scenario: you are flying along and all of a sudden the master caution comes on, you as PF call for MC, IDENTIFY, the PNF answers ELECTRICAL, LEFT GEN OFF BUS, SOURCE OFF and DRIVE, you acknowledge and ask for CANCEL MC, I HAVE CONTROLS AND ATC, START APU and COMPLETE DRIVE ABNORMAL CHECKLIST as the failure is on Constant speed drive - low oil pressure - Whereas if you have a generator failure on the generator side without the DRIVE light illuminating - is that even possible? - would you call for the SOURCE OFF abnormal? Basically when do you refer to the SOURCE OFF and when to the DRIVE abnormal checklists? Many thanks everyone for your willingness
