Just a tad bummed out today

Took the "91 300D into the shop today with a "smoking issue" that I knew had to do with the head and guess what, # 3 is cracked. Auxilary water pump was leaking, replaced last week, but I guess it got me. Hard to keep an eye on the temp guage every minute you're driving it. Question is I'm definitely going to replace with a NEW but Mercedes wants approx. 2K for a blank head. How is Metric motor able to sell the same item for $1,4000. Is it a made in Mexico or worse China? Car is worth it to me to repair the right way. Any suggestions? Thanks
