Block heater cord

Where can I get one? I've been looking for one and I can't find one for under 100 bucks the one I have from the donor truck the plug end got cut off and is hanging by the rubber coating I would put another plug end on it put I'm worried about water getting in it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My local Napa had them. I instead went and cut back the bad, soldered in new wire/plug/heat shrink and voila, good for the last few years.

I have a plug put on there so well see how long that works my glow plugs are getting weak so and I don't drive my truck in the winter time so I'm not really worried about it right now. It's on the back burner because we are buying a house so money is pretty tight. But will definitely get attention this winter when the truck is in the garage

On the same vein, who sells the original style heater? The one that screws in above the oil filter. I just checked mine out...it works, but I'd like a source for the future if this one fails.
