SAI Pump - 2000 9-5SE V6 - Source?

Hey there all.
I did all the searching - and I am 99% certain my SAI pump is shot. I have a hunch water condensed inside during a 33deg - 34deg low pressure humid wet slushy snow storm, and then a quick change to 10deg high pressure froze whatever was in there - and voila - shot. I'm going to thaw it out and blow it with compressed air as the first attempt. If that doesn't work - then replace.
My questions are...
I see folks talking about a $700 - $900 dealer repair, $300 or more for the pump plus 3 hours labor. It looks to me like a 45 minute job including removing the battery. Am I missing something? Or is it harder on a turbo 4cyl? Is the V6 a super-simple fix compared to the 4?
Second question - I've seen reference to pumps for about $200. Any information on sources for this pump? eEuroparts doesn't seem to carry it.
