Question Fan Clutch, what year and will it work?

My fan clutch (1982 RX7/GSL/12A) is about gone. Have found another one, BUT, it is not the same.The fan has, what I will call, a "hook" on the ends of the blades. Also, the bolt pattern on the clutch is a little bigger, 1/8" to 1/4", then the bolt pattern on mine. One, any idea of what year this other one may be from and, two, ideas of making it fix mine? I haven't had the flange off yet to see if I can enlarge to holes to fit the different pattern. If I knew the year I could check whether that flange would be interchangeble.
Thanks for any help.

I don't know where you got your replacement fan from but if you want, I've got a good fan with clutch that I don't think I'll ever use - off an 83, $10 plus shipping sound fair?
