It does look that way, both parts numbers come up invalid. #'s 1, 2, 3
& 4 use 398659 and #5 uses 22511818. Did the dealer try to do a
locate? Sometimes another dealer may have some on a shelf.
I never used or have any knowledge of them, but this place claims
they have both: http://www.vintageparts.org/index.php
Seems to me there was another company that bought remaining stock of
old parts, but the name escapes me at the moment.

Everything is easier if you have the part number. Thanks for reporting
back, I may have to keep them in mind as GM discontinues more and more
parts for mine.
