Idler arm bushing interchangability

I want to replace the bushing in the arm but WordPac doesn't have it for an E12. They do however have some bushing for the E24 and E32 (633,733).

I understand that they use a different style arm, but is the bushing different also?

Part numbers do not match the E12, but picture looks identical when comparing with the E32. I even have 2 options, 24mm and 27mm, but I think its the first.

Has anyone ever tried this out? Or know of a reputable source for one?

Thanks.
Regards,
L.

I've changed both and I know they don't interchange with late E24/E28. I don't know about others but I doubt it. But it appears to available and have a dealer list of about $20 or URO brand at Rockauto for a 5 spot.

Thank you for you input Mike. It is very appreciated. I wanted to avoid giving the stealership my money but id rather do that than buy anything URO.
