block heater replacement..

As if I needed something else to go wrong before the big pismo run lol.. anyway saw a small coolant stain/drip on the starter. The block heater was leaking, no big deal. My question is the parts house has a few different size plugs./heaters. What size are these block heaters? They show a 38mm and a 1½" block heaters. So I was thinking about this one because it comes with a new cord to

I'm assuming that this is the factory heater simply because the cord was still tied up by the battery and the plug was covered and look brand new, also not to mention it still have the wire loom cover on it lol.. Not too bad, it lasted this long. I think it is just the o-ring leaking but like I said I need a new cord and is leaking coolant so why not just replace both at same time
