That's exactly what I was dreading. I may go over to autozone see if they can next day me one for less than $200.

Rock Auto has fast shipping and is usually the cheapest. Just get good brands. EAC may be a better bet.
I'd wait a couple days if it means China OEM grade vs China Autozone grade.

i just replaced my fan clutch, then noticed i was missing a blade on the fan so replaced that too. The car runs much smoother now at least.

It's black, they tend to be more, and that's only asking price.

my fan clutch on the 540 had locked up and i kept driving while waiting for the part..... bad fucking idea. left a stop light and had to get on it to avoid being hit by a car, fan exploded. damage list, hood, under tray, fan, upper and lower hose, radiator, ambient sensor, and expansion tank.
