Default '72 Corvette 454 FAN BLADE

I recently needed to change the fan blade on my '72 454 with a/c.
I have found that the fan blade is quite unique for this car, my original had the tips partially broken off.
On finding an original replacement can someone please advise whether the tips of the blade should be straight out or are they bent on an angle to the blade.
Having probably the only car like this in Tasmania means exchanging information is fairly difficult.
Regards,
Chris From Australia

I have a pict that I think matches what you are looking for, I'm not sure how to download it, so if you give me your e-mail address I will try and send it to you.

The A/C cars have 7 blades and little points at the tips I believe.
