A long shot I know as this is for a steam driven computer, yonks old, but still very useful. The fan's making serious groaning noises and despite a clean and oil I know it won't be long before it conks out. Just posting in the hope someone may have one lurking around near their scrap heap.
I think it's called a heat sink fan and here's some images I took.
Hi branny, I just happen to have such a fan, give me an address and it's yours. Tony C.
Hey up! Cheers Tony. This forum is the biz - The most obscure request is fulfilled in next to no time. Pm sent and thanks!
Hmmmm - Still looking for the perfect fan guys. Tony's is 3" wide. It may be possible to use it, but if anyone else has one, please let me know.
Have a look at this from eBay:
At £1.20 it's not going to break the bank if it's not exactly right.
Paul.
Cheers for looking Paul. Right size, but just 2 pin.
Branny - be slightly careful: you need a 12VDC 3-pin 50mm fan - like this:

That one's even in St Helens!
Now we're talking! Cheers Martin.
