Broken flywheel

Ok the shop called me today and said I have a broken flywheel. And it will be a week before they can get one. Does anyone have one laying around cheap.
I have a 97 f 350 CC 7.3 powerstroke with an E40d tranny (automatic of course). They have had the truck for about 3 weeks now I would really like to get my truck back. Help Please!!!

did they say how it broke? or have you seen it? im still having a hard time believing it was broke before you took it to the shop

the flewplate and flywheel are the same thing right? i replaced this on my truck it cost me like 80 bucks from advanced auto parts. a lot of my teeth were grinded at the corners and now my starter is starting to eat at it again so i guess i gotta shim the starter. so watch out for that!

I didn't get picks of it.(I'll try to get some) But I did see it and it's CRACKED all the way around the bolt pattern on the flywheel. And the crack does not look real new
