Randy,

I don't exactly remember how that thing came out but just rip it out
anyway you can.  I went down to the auto parts store after I pulled out
the 'plastic mistake' and sized it up to a brass heater core that
somewhat matched it.  Next, I secured it into the rear area and put a
shut-off swich on the inlet hose.  Place and secure the fan behind it
and put the cover over the whole schebang.  Your done!
