Where to buy s4 water pump housing?

First of all I have never been on one of these forums so this tells you I’m desperate. Ive been searching for months and have came across two water pump housings for my 1988 Mazda Rx7 fc n/a. Both seemed sketchy. Is there a special website to order aftermarket or oem water pump housings? I broke it taking the thermostat out cause I’m a dumbass. I would really appreciate some help.

If you can post a pic of the housing in question that would be helpful.
I usually just grab parts off the Forum as guys always have them hanging around.
If you change the housing you may as well change the pump.Make sure your new pump comes with the gasket (pump to housing).
It also needs the housing to engine gasket.I just make them myself as they are easy and I'm not travelling 200 km return for a 5 dollar gasket!

I'd go with a new water pump from $25 off RockAuto.com. It comes with a new gasket. Might as well get a new t-stat also. Water pump housings can be had cheap here on the forum fro $20-$30.
