16-valve 740 Timing Cover source? 700

Help! The upper rear timing cover on my '89 740 GLE 16-valve is falling apart. I want to replace it while I'm changing my timing & balance belt, but I can't find a source. The volvo dealers I called around here (Brooklyn) want $170, $140, and $100 for the part. When I went to the $100 place and they found out that they couldn't order it, and the replacement Volvo suggested was to change all the rear timing belt covers with a new type, totaling around $370! IS there any cheaper way? Are the timing covers from junkyards going to be just as bad?
Thanks,
-Fran
