05 XKR A/C Compressor Source -HELP
 
I desperately need help finding a 2005 XKR A/C compressor, reman, new or if no luck, used.
FourSeasons(94731) and Murray have the wrong compressor in their listings and such, therefore , all their distributors also have the wrong one.
Our XKR has a 6 Rib main Serpentine. Every replacement compressor we find is a 7 rib. Does anyone have any help they can offer? Or am I SOL and will just have to run the 7 rib?
Car has been down since June 29th and feels like there's no end to this.
For those of you at Colorado Concours, you know our story.

I may have a 6 rib version, this is from an 4.2 Stype, so may be the same as the 4.2 XKR. Let me know if you get stuck, i'll check then if you can use the Stype one.

Frustrating update
 
The clutch was burned out so bad we couldn't resurface/rebuild it. A special thanks to 4Seasons for all their help and research.
Jaguar sent out the wrong design spec to all the re-manufactures for the 4.2 XKR A/C compressor. ALL listings and part reference charts are incorrect for the 6 rib main serpentine on the Supercharged set ups. Other than new units from Jag, there are no 6 rib reconditioned units available. So you have two options, buy new or run a 97342 7-rib. Not what I would prefer, but I'm going with the 7 rib because $230 beats $1600. The body's are identical, its only the Clutch/Pulley that will be one rib to long. I will snap a pic of the setup once I get the car back together. Ported/polished supercharger and inlet in the meantime. Hopefully it makes up for the car being down for a month.

Am actually running a 6 rib belt on my 7 rib P/S, A/C and Alternator without any issues already for some time, so the 7 rib pulley shouldn't be any worry.
