[SunHELP] Where to buy Sun PSU fans?

[Vintage Coder]

They look suspiciously like the bulkhead fans but I don't have a right angle screwdriver handy to pull out the PSU to be able to remove one of the fans to check. If they are the same that would be nice if *those* fans are available somewhere. Thanks.

A lot of the time if you can find the manufacturer's name and the model number of the fan you can cross reference it to a CFM rating and buy whichever one fits, rewiring it as required.

Are they anything really complicated, got a few pics of one?

According to the doc I found on Sun Shack and elsewhere, the fans are not designated FRU. It seems ridiculous to have to trash perfectly good PSUs because of what should be a five dollar fan. Does anybody have experience with this? Can this part be ordered separately or do I have to find somebody parting out similar servers?
