Because Vito is a threat and Joe is a threat, and when they get together, they’re a menace. The last time these guys worked together, they took out two Families, the local Triad and the local Irish Mob. If you don’t want the Vinci family to be next on the block, you keep those two far away from each other.
As far as Vito knows in mafia 3, Joe was tied up and beaten to death. Says he saw pictures or something and couldn’t even make out his face, so they never really confirmed Joe was dead, just that Vito genuinely believed it. I don’t see why the driver would look so similar if he wasn’t, they could have made him look like anyone else. Hell they probably told the same story to both of them, and showed them both the same picture of the same guy.
The guy that got killed was likely Eddie Scarpa since he was born in Chicago, he probably went there Vinci's people got a tip off and used him as an example and to get rid of the Falcone mafia family
