Not sure if this will help or not, but I had to have a key made from the VIN for my Honda. This key also has the radio chip/transmitter inside it.
It cost $49
You will have to have your ID as well as either the title or registration for the vehicle before they'll do it.

The key blank will be the most expensive part of the equation.
It'll take them all of about 5 minutes to cut a new key using the VIN number.
I can't imagine a C5 key blank being over $75, even with the Corvette tax included. You'll still have to pay for the 5 minutes of labor to cut the key, but it shouldn't be THAT much.
