Update- Called the dealership, and they quoted me $600 to fix. $250 for the part, and 4 hours of labor. Jeez! I asked them why it was so high, and they said it was because Contours are so hard to work on, that all the technicians groan when one comes in.

Thanks, guys. That really makes me want to bring the car in.

Then I called a local radiator and A/C shop that I've used before, and they quoted $325. Probably an aftermarket part (forgot to ask) but they do excellent work.
