Default Replacement Radiator for Inverter Cooling - Hybrid

I am having a hard time finding a replacement radiator for the hybrid inverter cooling system in the RX400H. All I am finding is the Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) radiator.
From lexus it's almost $500+ from the cheapest place online. That's super expensive for a radiator., The part number is G9010-48010.

What do you guys do? I am almost tempted to buy used, but buying a used radiator is kinda like a used condom. Its one use.

So, it turns out that a rock hit my radiator and cracked it. I am crossing my fingers hoping it can be repaired, rather than needing replacement. By the way, the radiator is all aluminium. I guess that is why it doesn't fail often, but when it does, its $$$pricey.

Found some used ones on the internet, One for $128 that looked pretty beat up, a couple other that were in the $250 $275 range. Downside is that they are all located in Japan, probably a month for delivery. Then there is the shipping charge. One place said something like $65, I didn't look at the others.

Best new price I found was $414, McGeorge Toyota in Richmond, Virginia. Shipping was $28.15.
