Question OEM Block Heater Plug

Anybody know where to buy the plug other than a dealership? The parts guy at my dealership tells me there is a huge backorder in the Mid-Atlantic region. He was supposed to get them in December but didn't. He's not sure when they'll be in.

NAPA, most larger truckstops, 'bout any heavy truck dealer. I wouldn't pay more than 20 bucks for it though.

my buddy went to the dealer and they wanted $55 for the cord, called me up and was freaked out. told him to go to Cummins and he ended up our the door for less than $14 for the cord.
